A boat moves perpendicular to the bank with a velocity of 7.2 km ph. The current carries it 150 m downstream. Find the velocity of current and the time required to cross the river.width of the river is 0.5 km.

Velocity of boat in still water is 5 m//s . It crossed river of 60 m wide, with 127^(@) angle always to the river flow. If the velocity of the river is 3.5 m//s the drift obtained by boat in the river on reaching opposite bank is (tan37^(@) = 3//4)

A boat which has a speed of 5 km hr^(-1) in still water crosses a river of width 1 km along the shortest possible path in 15 minutes. Calculate the velocity of the river water.
