Gce Model Questions Vol1 2022 Physics Question 50
Practice objective / multiple choice question 50 from the 2022 Gce Model Questions Vol1 Physics examination.
A boat can travel at \(5.0\ \text{m s}^{-1}\) in still water. It must cross a river \(200\ \text{m}\) wide that flows downstream at \(3.0\ \text{m s}^{-1}\). (a) If the boat heads directly across the river (perpendicular to the banks), find the time taken to reach the opposite bank, the downstream displacement of the landing point, and the angle that the resultant path makes with the perpendicular. (b) To land directly opposite its starting point, at what angle upstream from the perpendicular must the boat be aimed? Give the angle to one decimal place.
