A radar station sends a signal to a ship which is located a distance 13.8 kilometers from the station at bearing 136° clockwise from the north. At the same moment, a helicopter is at a horizontal range of 19.6 kilometers, at bearing 154° clockwise from the north, with an elevation of 2.53 kilometers. Let east be the î direction, north be the ĵ direction, and up be the direction. c) What If? The ship begins to sink at a rate of 5.30 m/s. Write the position vector (in km) of the ship relative to the helicopter as a function of time as the ship sinks. Assume that the helicopter remains hovering at its initial position and that the sinking rate remains the same even after the ship sinks under the surface. d)Evaluate the position of the ship relative to the helicopter (in km) after 1.60 h.
