Reference no: EM13206360

During World War 2, a U.S. navy submarine, sitting at a full stop on the surface of the Philippine Sea facing due north sights a Japanese Aircraft Carrier 5 miles, dead ahead. The carrier is sailing due east at a speed of 10 MPH. If the submarine carries torpedoes that run at 40 MPH, and it takes 3 minutes to aim, load, and fire the torpedo, at what angle must the submarine fire the torpedo to strike the carrier (report to 2 decimal places, i.e. 35.62 degrees). What is the running time of the torpedo? What distance does the torpedo travel?
