Two ships leave a port from a point at the same time. One goes with a velocity of \(3 \mathrm{~km} / \mathrm{h}\) along North-East maling an angle of \(45^{\circ}\) with East direction and the other travels with a velocity of \(4 \mathrm{~km} / \mathrm{h}\) along South-East maling an angle of \(15^{\circ}\) with East direction. Then, the distance between the ships at the end of two hours is

  1. A \(2 \sqrt{13}\)
  2. B \(\sqrt{13}\)
  3. C 5
  4. D 10

Answer & Solution

Correct Answer

(A) \(2 \sqrt{13}\)

Step-by-step Solution

Detailed explanation

Distance travelled by ship \(O A\) direction in 2 h is \(6 {~km}\) and \(O B\) direction in \(2 {~h} 138 {~km}\).…
