Question
The following diagram shows two ships A and B. At noon, ship A was 15 km due north of ship B. Ship A was moving south at 15 km h–1 and ship B was moving east at 11 km h–1.
Find the distance between the ships
(i) at 13:00;
(ii) at 14:00.
Let \(s(t)\) be the distance between the ships t hours after noon, for \(0 \le t \le 4\) .
Show that \(s(t) = \sqrt {346{t^2} – 450t + 225} \) .
Sketch the graph of \(s(t)\) .
