The number of shortest paths from point A to D (as show in figure)

A 400 m wide river is flowing from west to east at velocity 3m/s. A boat starts from one bank and it crosses the river along the shortest path. When it reaches the middle of river, wind starts blowing horizontally along north-east at a velocity sqrt(2) m/s . Due to this, the direction of rowing of boat has to be changed for the boat to move along the shortest path. If the velocity of boat in still water with no wind blowing is 5 m/s, then choose the correct option(s).

Two persons P and Q crosses the river starting the point A on one side to exactly opposite point B on the other bank of the river. The person P crosses the river in the shortest path. The person Q crosses the river in shortest time and walks back to point B .Velocity of river is 3 kmph and speed of each person is 5kmph w.r.t river. If the two persons reach the point B in the same time, then the speed of walk of Q is .

The number of ways in which a person can reach from the point A to B along the grid through the shortest path as shown in the figure is -
