An airplane flies in a great circle route of radius R with a constant relative velocity v0 to the earth which is rotating at ?w . The angle between the normal direction of the big circle plane and the earth axis is 45?.

1) Determine the number of degrees of freedom.

2) The configuration of a holonomic system can always be specified using a minimal set of generalized coordinates equal to the degrees of freedom. Please define a minimal set of generalized coordinate(s) equal to the degree of freedom.

3) Determine the airplane velocity in term(s) of the generalized coordinate(s).
