A man can swim with a speed of `4kmh^(-1)` in still water. He crosses a river 1km wise that flows steadly at `3kmh^(-1)`. If he makes his strokes normal to the river current, how far down the river does he go when he reaches the other bank?

A man can swim with a speed 4km/hr in still water. (a) How long does he takes to cross a river 1 km wide if the river flows steadily at 3 km/hr and makes his strokes normal to the river current? (b) How far down the river does he go when he go when he reaches the other bank?

A man can swim at the rate of 5 km//h in still water. A river 1 km wide flows at the rate of 3km h^(-1) . A swimmer wishes to cross the river straight.

A man can swim at a speed of 3 km h^-1 in still water. He wants to cross a 500-m wide river flowing at 2 km h^-1 . He keeps himself always at an angle to 120^@ with the river flow while swimming. The drift of the man along the direction of flow, when he arrives at the opposite bank is.

A man can swim at a speed of 3 km h^-1 in still water. He wants to cross a 500-m wide river flowing at 2 km h^-1 . He keeps himself always at an angle to 120^@ with the river flow while swimming. The time taken to cross the river is.

A boatman can row with a speed of 10 kmh^(-1) in still water. River flows at 6 km h^(-1) . If he crosses the river from one bank to the other along the shortest possible path, time taken to cross that river of width 1 km is

A man can swim at the rate of 5 kmh^(-1) in still water A. One km wide river flows at the rate of 3 kmh^(-1) . The man wishes to swim across the river directly opposite to the starting point. How much time will be take to cross the river

A boat man can rown with a speed of 10 km h^(-1) in still water. If the river flows steadily at 5 km //h , in which direction showld the boatman row in order to reach a point on the other bank directly opposite to the point from wher he stared ? The width of the river is 2km .
