Question

Transcribed Image Text:13. A passenger ship and an oil tanker left the port at any time in the morning. The
passenger ship as a former headed north and the latter headed east. At noon,
the passenger ship was 40 nautical miles from port and sailing at 30 nautical
miles per hour, while the oil tanker was 30 miles from port and sailing at 20
miles per hour. Determine the rate of change of the distance between the two
ships with respect to time. (Hint: Use Pythagorean theorem and differentiation).
