You are rowing at 5 m/s to the east on still water. A current going 30 degrees north of east pushes you off course. To continue going east, you must row 12 degrees south of east. What is the speed of the current?

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...
A boat is traveling where there is a current of 0.20 m/s east. To avoid some offshore rocks, the boat must clear a buoy that is NNE (22.5) ∘ and 3.3 km away. The boat's speed through still water is 1.8 m/s . If the boat wants to pass the buoy 0.20 km on its right, at what angle relative north should the boat head? I followed similar answers and got 19.4 degrees, but it says it's wrong.
A man rows a boat at 4 m/s north in still water. The current in a river is 2 m/s east. The river is 40 m wide. If he wants to cross the river in the smallest possible time at what direction should he aim the boat?
At one instant a bicyclist is 55 m due east of a park's flagpole, going due south with a speed of 19 m/s. Then, 24 s later, the cyclist is 75 m due north of the flagpole, going due east with a speed of 7 m/s. For the cyclist in this 24 s interval, find each of the following. (a) displacement magnitude m direction
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.
Q11 Jada is rowing a boat across a river that has a current of 5 m/s in the j direction. Leanne, standing on the shore, observes Jada's velocity to be 8 m/s î+3 m/s j. What is Jada's speed with respect to the water? O 13.3 m/s O 8.54 m/s O 4.24 m/s O 11.3 m/s O 8.25 m/s O None of these
The man can row the boat in still water with a speed of 5 m/s.A) If the river is flowing at 2 m/s, determine the speed of the boat.B) Determine the angle θ he must direct the boat so that it travels from A to B.
The nile river has a current of 2 m/s south.Tim decides to go to a row.Sandy sits on thriver bank and sees Tim rowing by at 4m/s North.What is the actual speed that Tim is rowing the boat with respect to the water? a)2 m/s South b)2 m/s North c)4 m/s South d)6 m/s North A 50 kg crate rests on the floor of a house.The coefficient of a static friction ia 0.75 and the coefficient of kinetic friction is...
At one instant a bicyclist is 60 m due east of a park’s flagpole, going south at 20 m/s. Then 30 s later, the cyclist is 40 m due north of the flagpole, going due east with a speed of 10 m/s. On an XY- coordinate system with the flagpole at the origin, for the cyclist in this 30 s time interval a) Draw the position and velocity vectors of the bicyclist as described. b) On your graph in part...
A river flows due east at 2.69 m/s. A boat crosses the river from the south shore to the north shore by maintaining a constant velocity of 12.2 m/s due north relative to the water. What is (a) the magnitude (m/s) and (b) the direction (degrees east of north) of the boat’s velocity relative to shore? (c) If the river is 324 m wide, how far (m) downstream has the boat moved by the time it reaches the north shore?
