A ship sets sail from Rotterdam, The Netherlands, intending to head due north at 7.5 m/s relative to the water. However, the local ocean current is 1.50 m/s in a direction 40.0º north of east and changes the ship's intended motion. In what direction would the ship have to travel in order to have a resulant velocity straight north relative to the earth, assuming the speed relative to the water reamins 7.5 m/s? Specicify the angle west of north, relative to earth? And what would the ship's speed be relative to the Earth, in meters per second
