$A$ steamboat goes across a lake and comes back $(a)$ on a quiet day when the water is still and $(b)$ on a rough day when there is a uniform air current so as to help the journey onward and to impede the journey back. If the speed of the launch on both days was the same,in which case will it complete the journey in lesser time?

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 $t=1 \,s$.
