a boat heading due north crosses a wide river with speed of 12km/h relative to the water the water in the river has a uniform speed of 5 km/h due east relative to the earth.determine the velocity of the boat relative to an observer standing on either bank and the direction of boat
a boat is heading due east across a river with a velocity of 7.0 m/s with the respect of water. The current of the water is flowing south with a velocity of 3.0 m/s. What is the speed and direction of the boat with respect to an observer on the bank of the river?
A boat crossing a wide river moves with a speed of 18.0 km/h relative to the water. The water in the river has a steady speed of 8.00 km/h due east relative to the earth. a) If the boat heads due south, determine the speed of the boat relative to an observer standing on the shore. km/h 9. b) What is the angle made between the velocity of the boat relative to the observer and the south direction? 10. c)...
A 230-m-wide river flows due east at a uniform speed of 2.1 m/s. A boat with speed of 7.8 m/s relative to the water leaves the south bank of the river pointed in a direction 35 degrees west of north. What is the magnitude of the boat's velocity relative to the ground (in m/s)? Enter only the numerical part of the answer in the box Question 2 1 pts A 212-m-wide river flows due east at a uniform speed of...
You are a member of a geological team in Central Africa. Your team comes upon a wide river that is flowing east. You must determine the width of the river and the current speed (the speed of the water relative to the earth). You have a small boat with an outboard motor. By measuring the time it takes to cross a pond where the water isnt flowing, you have calibrated the throttle settings to the speed of the boat in...
A 280-m-wide river flows due east at a uniform speed of 4.4m/s. A boat with a speed of 6.9m/s relative to the water leaves the south bank pointed in a direction 33owest of north. What is the (a) magnitude and (b)direction of the boat's velocity relative to the ground? Give the direction as the angle of the velocity from due north, positive if to the east and negative if to the west. (c) How long does it take for the...
A 200-m-wide river flows due east at a uniform speed of 3.4m/s. A boat with a speed of 8.4m/s relative to the water leaves the south bank pointed in a direction 34o west of north. What is the (a) magnitude and (b) direction of the boat's velocity relative to the ground? Give the direction as the angle of the velocity from due north, positive if to the east and negative if to the west. (c) How long does it take...
A 250-m-wide river flows due east at a uniform speed of 4.0m/s. A boat with a speed of 6.9m/s relative to the water leaves the south bank pointed in a direction 26o west of north. What is the (a) magnitude and (b) direction of the boat's velocity relative to the ground? Give the direction as the angle of the velocity from due north, positive if to the east and negative if to the west. (c) How long does it take...
A 250-m-wide river flows due east at a uniform speed of 2.8m/s. A boat with a speed of 7.7m/s relative to the water leaves the south bank pointed in a direction 31o west of north. What is the (a) magnitude and (b) direction of the boat's velocity relative to the ground? Give the direction as the angle of the velocity from due north, positive if to the east and negative if to the west.
A 236-m-wide river flows due east at a uniform speed of 2.1 m/s. A boat with speed of 7.9 m/s relative to the water leaves the south bank of the river pointed in a direction 37 degrees west of north. What is the magnitude of the boat's velocity relative to the ground (in m/s)? Enter only the numerical part of the answer in the box.
