A Coast Guard ship is travelling at a constant velocity of 4.20 m/s [E], relative to the water. On his radar screen the navigator detects an object that is moving at a constant velocity. The object is located at a distance of 2310 m with respect to the ship, in a direction [E 32.0° S]. Six minutes Later, he notes that the objects position relative to the ship has changed to 1120 m [W 57.0° S]. What is the velocity of the object relative to the water? Express the direction as an angle with respect to the west.

please use relative motion to answer and please explain in detail what you are solving in each step. Also someone on this site already answered this, I just want to compare the solution to someone else’s. Thanks. Also this is be done using grade 12 level physics.

A high altitude jet airplane has a velocity relative to the air of 320 m/s due west. At a certain moment, the pilot notices a mountain peak directly west of the plane at a horizontal distance of 4.20 km. 10 s later, the peak is observed to be a horizontal distance 4.18 km away in a direction 17?north of west. (a) Set up a coordinate system and given the components of the displacement vectors between the airplane and the mountain...
