Halliday, Resnick & Walker β Motion in Two and Three Dimensions: Problem 70
A boat is traveling upstream in the positive direction of an x axis at 14 km/h with respect to the water of a river. The water is flowing at 9.0 km/h with respect to the ground. What are the (a) magnitude and (b) direction of the boatβs velocity with respect to the ground? A child on the boat walks from front to rear at 6.0 km/h with respect to the boat. What are the (c) magnitude and (d) direction of the childβs velocity with respect to the ground?
π Solution Approach
Given: 14 km, 9.0 km, 6.0 km
Find: (a) magnitude and; (b) direction of the boatβs velocity with respect to the ground?; (c) magnitude and
