Question : 3
Speed of current is 10% of speed of ship B. At 9:00
AM, ship A was 800 meter ahead of ship B, and ship
B completely crosses the ship A at 9:05 AM.
Calculate in what time ship B crosses ship C when
distance between them is 2300 meters and both are
travelling in same direction, given that sum of length
of ship B and ship A is 100 meters and speed of ship
C is same as ship A and length of ship C and ship A
is also same.

Step-by-step explanation:
It is clear from the diagram that the shortest distance between the ship A and B is PQ.
Here, Sin45
