  • Technically, his starting location is defined contradictorily, being both the same position as hers, as well as “due north”. We can only proceed if a point can be considered “due north” of itself.

    Technically, his initial direction of travel isn’t actually defined, nor is that direction specified as constant. Only his initial position and “5ft/sec” speed has actually been defined. The problem doesn’t actually constrain him to a northerly heading, or even to a constant heading. He could choose to orbit her at a constant distance as she travels eastward.

    His possible position will be up to 25ft from the origin, putting him at most 30 feet from her, if his direction is opposite hers. If his direction is constant, his minimum distance from her will be 20 feet.

    If his direction is not constant, and he elects to minimize his distance from her, as his distance from her approaches zero, his revolutions around her in a given time will approach infinite, and we will have to consider relativistic effects. From his perspective, his body will be ripped apart into a dizzying pink mist, which he will experience for all eternity. Poetic, I suppose.

    Read up on it. Everyone on board has anxiety. She reported no current symptoms: a cough she’d had several days earlier had resolved before she was examined.

    She specifically told the doctors that she was feeling anxious. They didn’t pull that out of their asses; they listened to their patient.

    She displayed and reported no current symptoms consistent with the Hantavirus. That’s not improper doctoring. They would have needed a crystal ball to diagnose her at that time.
