Q1:

A
|
| 21nm (P)
|--------->
|
|
|
|
|
| 30nm (X on a bearing of 163°)
|---------

Q2: To find how far apart the ships are, we can use the Pythagorean theorem:

Distance = √(21^2 + 30^2)
Distance = √(441 + 900)
Distance = √1341
Distance ≈ 36.62 nautical miles

So, the ships are approximately 36.62 nautical miles apart.

Q3:
Speed = Distance / Time

For ship X, the distance is 30 nautical miles and the time is 30 minutes (0.5 hours):

Speed = 30 / 0.5
Speed = 60 nautical miles per hour

Therefore, the speed of ship X is 60 nautical miles per hour.
