The jet transport \(B\) is flying north with a velocity \(v_{\mathrm{B}}=600 \mathrm{~km} / \mathrm{h}\) when a smaller aircraft \(A\) passes underneath the transport headed in the \(60^{\circ}\) direction shown. To passengers in \(B\), however, \(A\) appears to be flying sideways and moving east. Determine the actual velocity of \(A\) and the velocity which \(A\) appears to have relative to \(B\).
