Question 40

A boat B B\,B moves with a constant velocity. At noon, B B\,B is at the point with position vector (4i−3j) km(4\mathbf{i} - 3\mathbf{j}) \text{ km}(4i−3j) km with respect to a fixed origin OOO. The velocity of B B\,B is (−6i+8j) km/h(-6\mathbf{i} + 8\mathbf{j}) \text{ km/h}(−6i+8j) km/h.

a.

Find the position vector of B B\,B at 1430.
