A river is flowing wih velocity 2 m//s. ...

A river is flowing wih velocity `2 m//s`. A boat is moving downstream. Velocity of boat in still water is `3 m//s`. A person standing on boat throws a ball vertically upwards w.r.t. himself with a velocity to `10 m//s`. At the topmost point the velocity of ball w.r.t. man standing on boat, w.r.t. river and w.r.t. ground respectively are

A

`5, 3, 0 m//s`

B

`0, 3, 5 m//s`

C

`0, 5, 3 m//s`

D

The correct Answer is:
To solve the problem, we need to find the velocities of the ball at the topmost point with respect to the man on the boat, the river, and the ground. ### Step-by-Step Solution: 1. **Understanding the velocities:** - The velocity of the river (Vr) = 2 m/s (downstream). - The velocity of the boat in still water (Vb) = 3 m/s (downstream). - The velocity of the boat with respect to the ground (Vbg) = Vr + Vb = 2 m/s + 3 m/s = 5 m/s (downstream). 2. **Velocity of the ball with respect to the man on the boat:** - The man throws the ball vertically upwards with a velocity of 10 m/s relative to himself. - At the topmost point of its trajectory, the vertical component of the ball's velocity becomes 0 m/s. - Therefore, the velocity of the ball with respect to the man on the boat (Vbm) = 0 m/s. 3. **Velocity of the ball with respect to the river:** - When the ball is thrown, it has a horizontal velocity equal to the velocity of the boat with respect to the ground, which is 5 m/s (since the ball is moving with the boat). - The river is moving at 2 m/s downstream. - Thus, the velocity of the ball with respect to the river (Vbr) = Vbg - Vr = 5 m/s - 2 m/s = 3 m/s. 4. **Velocity of the ball with respect to the ground:** - The ball maintains its horizontal velocity of 5 m/s (in the direction of the river) since there are no horizontal forces acting on it after it is thrown. - Therefore, the velocity of the ball with respect to the ground (Vbg) = 5 m/s. ### Final Results: - Velocity of the ball with respect to the man on the boat: **0 m/s** - Velocity of the ball with respect to the river: **3 m/s** - Velocity of the ball with respect to the ground: **5 m/s** ### Summary: The final answer is: - With respect to the man on the boat: **0 m/s** - With respect to the river: **3 m/s** - With respect to the ground: **5 m/s**

To solve the problem, we need to find the velocities of the ball at the topmost point with respect to the man on the boat, the river, and the ground. ### Step-by-Step Solution: 1. **Understanding the velocities:** - The velocity of the river (Vr) = 2 m/s (downstream). - The velocity of the boat in still water (Vb) = 3 m/s (downstream). - The velocity of the boat with respect to the ground (Vbg) = Vr + Vb = 2 m/s + 3 m/s = 5 m/s (downstream). ...
