Ship `A` is travelling with a velocity of `5 km h^-1` due east. A second ship is heading `30^@` east of north. What should be the speed of second ship if it is to remain always due north with respect to the first ship ?A. `10 km h^-1`B. `9 km h^-1`C. `8 km h^-1`D. `7 km h^-1`

Answer» Correct Answer - A
(a) For B always to be north of `A`, the velocity components of both along east should be same.
`v_2 cos 60^@ = v_1`
`rArr v_2 = 10 km h^-1`.
