A cruise ship maintains a speed of 10 knots (nautical miles per hour) sailing from San Juan to Barbados, a distance of 600 nautical miles. To avoid a tropical storm, the captain heads out of San Juan at a direction of 13° off a direct heading to Barbados. The captain maintains the 10-knot speed for 15 hours, after which time the path to Barbados becomes clear of storms. (a) Through what angle should the captain turn to head directly to Barbados? (b) Once the turn is made, how long will it be before the ship reaches Barbados if the same 10-knot speed is maintained? (HD) (a) The captain should head through an angle of (Do not round until the final answer. Then round to one decimal place as needed.) (b) The time it will take for the ship to reach Barbados is hours. (Do not round until the final answer. Then round to one decimal place as needed.) Barbados 131 San Juan
