Answer:

Direction of ship: 9.45° West of North

Ship's relative speed: 7.87m/s

Explanation:

A. Direction of ship: since horizontal of the velocity of boat relative to the ground is 0

Vx=0

Therefore, -VsSin∅+VcCos∅40°

Sin∅ = Vc/Vs × Cos 40°

Sin∅ = 1.5/7 ×Cos40°

Sin∅= 0.164

∅= Sin-¹ (0.164)

∅= 9.45° W of N

B. Ship's relative speed:

Vy= VsCos∅ + Vcsin40°

= 7Cos9.45° + 1.5sin40°

= 7×0.986 + 1.5×0.642

= 7.865

= 7.87m/s

You are operating a pwc in an area where swimmers are in the water. When must you slow your pwc to "slow, no wake speed"?.
Lostsunrise [7]

You should slow your pwc to "slow, no wake speed" when within 100 feet of anchored vessels or non-motorized craft.

<h3>What is Slow-no-wake?</h3>

This is the process of operating a personal watercraft at the slowest possible speed.

This helps to maintain steerage which prevents different forms of accident or risks when in motion in the water.

Help wanted on this question.
Shalnov [3]
The answer is "positive" because a vector can be represented by an arrow. An arrow or "vector" can be denoted by drawing the size of the arrow in proportion to the magnitude of the vector. The positive and negative are designated for direction...

Good luck -Abi :)
