At 7:30 AM in the morning, Ukrainian army tank is 50 km due west of a Russian army tank. The Ukrainian army tank is then moving due north at 15 km/h, and Russian army tank is moving due west at a rate of 20 km/h. If these two tanks continue on their respective courses: (a) at what time will they be nearest one another? (Use the time format: HOUR:MINUTES AM/PM) (b) what's the nearest distance, in km, between the two tanks?
