A river flows from west to east at 1.50 m/s. A motorboat is
aimed north across the river, and moves at 2.5 m/s relative to the
water. The river is 100 m wide.
a) Find velocity in respect to the shore
b) How far downstream does the boat land?
c) In what direction should the motorboat be aimed to land at
the point directly north of its starting position
just home work question i cant figure out
