Assignment 8: Problem 10 Previous Problem Problem List Next Problem (1 point) At noon, ship A is 40 nautical miles due west of ship B. Ship A Is sailing west at 22 knots and ship B is sailing north at 19 knots. How fast (in knots) is the distance between the ships changing at 5 PM? (Note: 1 knot is a speed of 1 nautical mile per hour.) 29.06 knot Note: Draw yourself a diagram which shows where the ships are at noon and where they are "some time" later on. You will need to use geometry to work out a formula which tells you how far apart the ships are at time I, and you will need to use "distance = velocity * time" to work out how far the ships have travelled after time t.
