can you help please

 An archaeological team is excavating artifacts from a sunken merchant vessel on the ocean floor. To help with the exploration, the team uses a robotic probe. The probe travels approximately 4,800 meters at an angle of depression of 69.3° from the team’s ship on the ocean surface down to the sunken vessel on the ocean floor. 


a. If the probe travels horizontally at a speed of 5 meters per second, how long will it take for the probe to be underneath the ship?
