A uniform wooden plank of mass 150 kg and length 8 m is floating on still water with a man of 50 kg at one end of it . The man walks to the other end of the plank and stops. Than the distance covered by the plank is

A boy of mass 40 kg is standing at one ned of the boat (mass : 80 kg) of length 6m in a river. Now the boy reaches to other end of the boat. Find the distance moved by the boat and the distance travelled by boy as seen from the bank of river.Assume that the system is at rest and no friction between the boat and the water.

The current velocity of river grows in proportion to the distance from its bank and reaches the maximum value v_0 in the middle. Near the banks the velocity is zero. A boat is moving along the river in such a manner that the boatman rows his boat always perpendicular to the current. The speed of the boat in still water is u. Find the distance through which the boat crossing the river will be carried away by the current, if the width of the river is c. Also determine the trajectory of the boat.
