AI Explanation
The correct answer is B. To determine the correct time zone, we need to convert the given time from Eastern Standard Time (EST) to Zulu (Z) or UTC time. Since the time zone difference between EST and Zulu is +5 hours, the time in Zulu would be 1700 EST + 5 hours = 2200Z. Therefore, the correct answer is B, which represents the Zulu time of 2200. The other options are incorrect because they do not accurately reflect the Zulu time corresponding to 1700 EST.
