Answer:

304.13 mph

Explanation:

Data provided in the question :

The Speed of the flying aircraft = 300 mph

Tailwind of the true airspeed = 50 mph

Now,

The ground speed will be calculated as:

ground speed = [tex]\sqrt{300^2+50^2}[/tex]

or

The ground speed = [tex]\sqrt{92500}[/tex]

or

The ground speed = 304.13 mph

Hence, the ground speed is 304.13 mph
