Question 12

A ship S S\,S moves with a constant velocity. At 11:00, S S\,S is at the point with position vector (−4i+5j) km(-4\mathbf{i} + 5\mathbf{j}) \text{ km}(−4i+5j) km with respect to a fixed origin OOO. At 13:00, the ship is at the point with position vector (8i−1j) km(8\mathbf{i} - 1\mathbf{j}) \text{ km}(8i−1j) km.

a.
