Gce Model Questions Vol1 2024 Physics Question 15
Practice objective / multiple choice question 15 from the 2024 Gce Model Questions Vol1 Physics examination.
A boat can row at a speed of \(3.0\ \text{m s}^{-1}\) relative to still water. It attempts to cross a river that is \(200\ \text{m}\) wide and flows downstream at \(2.0\ \text{m s}^{-1}\). The boat heads directly across the river (perpendicular to the banks). Determine (a) the resultant speed of the boat relative to the ground, and (b) the angle downstream from the straight‑across direction that the boat's actual path makes. Give the speed to three significant figures and the angle to the nearest degree.
