An object falls from a bridge which is 45 m above the water. It falls directly into a small row - boat moving with constant velocity that was 12m from the point of impact when the object was released. What was the speed of the boat ?

Text Solution

AI Generated Solution

To solve the problem, we need to determine the speed of the boat based on the time it takes for an object to fall from a height of 45 meters and the distance the boat travels in that time. ### Step-by-Step Solution: 1. **Identify the Given Data:** - Height of the bridge (h) = 45 m - Distance of the boat from the point of impact (d) = 12 m - Initial velocity of the object (u) = 0 m/s (since it is dropped) ...

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.
