$Assertion$ : The magnitude of velocity of two boats relative to the river is the same. Both boats start simultaneously from the same point on one bank and may reach the opposite bank simultaneously while moving along different paths.
$Reason$ : For boats to cross the river in the same time,the component of their velocity relative to the river in the direction normal to the flow should be the same.
$Reason$ : For boats to cross the river in the same time,the component of their velocity relative to the river in the direction normal to the flow should be the same.
- AIf both Assertion and Reason are correct and the Reason is a correct explanation of the Assertion.
- BIf both Assertion and Reason are correct but Reason is not a correct explanation of the Assertion.
- CIf the Assertion is correct but Reason is incorrect.
- DIf both the Assertion and Reason are incorrect.

Airplanes $A$ and $B$ are flying with constant velocity in the same vertical plane at angles $30^{\circ}$ and $60^{\circ}$ with respect to the horizontal,respectively,as shown in the figure. The speed of $A$ is $100 \sqrt{3} \ m/s$. At time $t=0$,an observer in $A$ finds $B$ at a distance of $500 \ m$. This observer sees $B$ moving with a constant velocity perpendicular to the line of motion of $A$. If at $t = t_0$,$A$ just escapes being hit by $B$,then $t_0$ in seconds is:
The speed of a swimmer is $4\,km\,h^{-1}$ in still water. If the swimmer makes his strokes normal to the flow of a river of width $1\,km$,he reaches a point $750\,m$ downstream on the opposite bank. The speed of the river water is $.........\,km\,h^{-1}$.
Particle $A$ (which was located at the origin at time $t=0$) is moving along the $x$-axis with a constant speed of $1 \,m/s$. The location of particle $B$, which is moving along the $y$-axis, is given by $y=ct^2$, where $c=1 \,m/s^2$. Find the speed of particle $A$ relative to particle $B$ at $t=1 \,s$.
$A$ swimmer swims in still water at a speed of $5 \text{ km/hr}$. He enters a $200 \text{ m}$ wide river,having a river flow speed of $4 \text{ km/hr}$,at point $A$ and proceeds to swim at an angle of $127^{\circ}$ $(\sin 37^{\circ} = 0.6)$ with the river flow direction. Another point $B$ is located directly across $A$ on the other side. The swimmer lands on the other bank at a point $C$,from which he walks the distance $CB$ with a speed of $3 \text{ km/hr}$. The total time in which he reaches from $A$ to $B$ is .......... $\text{minutes}$.

View Solution$A$ river $200 \,m$ wide is flowing at a rate of $3.0 \,m/s$. $A$ boat is sailing at a velocity of $15 \,m/s$ with respect to the water in a direction perpendicular to the river. How far from the point directly opposite to the starting point does the boat reach on the opposite bank (in $\,m$)?
