Answer:
The velocity of the ship relative to the earth V = 9.05 
Explanation:
The local ocean current is = 1.52 m/s
Direction
= 40°
Velocity component in X - direction
= 1.52
°
= 1.164 
Velocity component in Y - direction
= 8 + 1.52
°
= 8.97 
The velocity of the ship relative to the earth

Put the values of
and
we get,
⇒ 
⇒ V = 9.05 
This is the velocity of the ship relative to the earth.
Answer:
Explanation:
height of pole = 15 ft
height of man = 6 ft
Let the length of shadow is y .
According to the diagram
Let at any time the distance of man is x.
The two triangles are similar

15 y - 15 x = 6 y
9 y = 15 x

Differentiate with respect to time.

As given, dx/dt = 4 ft/s

ft/s
