6 At noon, two ships, \(A\) and \(B\), are a distance of 12 km apart, with \(B\) on a bearing of \(065 ^ { \circ }\) from \(A\). The ship \(B\) travels due north at a constant speed of \(10 \mathrm {~km} \mathrm {~h} ^ { - 1 }\). The ship \(A\) travels at a constant speed of \(18 \mathrm {~km} \mathrm {~h} ^ { - 1 }\).

1. Find the direction in which \(A\) should travel in order to intercept \(B\). Give your answer as a bearing.
2. In fact, the ship \(A\) actually travels on a bearing of \(065 ^ { \circ }\).
   1. Find the distance between the ships when they are closest together.
   2. Find the time when the ships are closest together.
