A cruise ship maintains a speed of 15 knots (nautical miles per hour) in going from San Juan to Barbados, a distance of 600 nautical miles. To avoid a tropical storm, the captain heads out of San Juan in a direction 20(degrees) off a direct heading to Barbados. The captain maintains the 15-knot speed for 10 hours, after which time the path to Barbados becomes clear of storms. Through what angle should the captain turn to head directly to Barbados, and how long will it take to reach the destination?
