Two ports, A and B, on a north-south line ar separated by a river of width D. The river flows east with speed u. A boat crosses the river starting from port A. The speed of the boat relative to the river is v. Assume `v=2u`
Q. The boat crosses the river from A to the other side in shortest possible time, then how far is the boat from the port B after crossing the river

Two ports, A and B, on a north-south line ar separated by a river of width D. The river flows east with speed u. A boat crosses the river starting from port A. The speed of the boat relative to the river is v. Assume v=2u Q. Suppose the boat wants to cross the river from A to the other side in the shortest possible time. Then what should be the direction of the velocity of boat relative to river?

A river of width 'd' with straight parallel banks flows due North with speed u. A boat, whose speed is v relative to water, starts from A and crosses the river. If the boat is steered due West and u varies with y as u=(y(d-y)v)/d^(2) then answer the following questions. The time take by boat to cross the river is
