Ship A is located 4.1 km north and 2.3 km east of ship B. Ship A has a velocity of 20 km/h toward the south and ship B has a velocity of 42 km/h in a direction 37 ° north of east. What are the (a) x-component and (b) y-component of the velocity of A relative to B? (Axis directions are determined by the unit vectors î and ĵ , where î is toward the east.) (c) At what time is the separation between the ships least? (d) What is that least separation?

    The good ship Beegull is travelling in perfectly calm seas on course for a small remote island, to carry out a wildlife survey. It is travelling at a speed (relative to the surrounding sea) of 40 km h−1 with a bearing of 55◦ . It is initially on course to enter harbour at the island assuming no change in the sea conditions. Unfortunately, unknown to the crew, a strong current arises of 15 km h−1 in the direction from north-west...
