$A$ boat is moving with a velocity $3i + 4j$ with respect to the ground. The water in the river is moving with a velocity $-3i - 4j$ with respect to the ground. The relative velocity of the boat with respect to the water is:

  • A
    $8j$
  • B
    $-6i - 8j$
  • C
    $6i + 8j$
  • D
    $5\sqrt{2}$

$A$ swimmer can swim in still water with speed $v$ and the river is flowing with velocity $\frac{v}{2}$. To cross the river in the shortest time,he should swim making an angle $\theta$ with the upstream. What is the ratio of the time taken to swim across in the shortest time to that in swimming across over the shortest distance?

$A$ glass windscreen,whose inclination with the vertical can be changed,is mounted on a car. The car moves horizontally with a speed of $2\,m/s$. At what angle $\alpha$ with the vertical should the windscreen be placed so that the rain drops falling vertically downwards with velocity $6\,m/s$ strike the windscreen perpendicularly?

To a person,going eastward in a car with a velocity of $25\, km/hr$,a train appears to move towards north with a velocity of $25\sqrt{3}\, km/hr$. The actual velocity of the train will be..........$km/hr$

$A$ train is moving slowly on a straight track with a constant speed of $2 \,ms^{-1}$. $A$ passenger in that train starts walking at a steady speed of $2 \,ms^{-1}$ to the back of the train in the opposite direction of the motion of the train. To an observer standing on the platform directly in front of that passenger, the velocity of the passenger appears to be:

When a car is at rest,its driver sees rain drops falling on it vertically. When driving the car with speed $v$,he sees that rain drops are coming at an angle $60^{\circ}$ from the horizontal. On further increasing the speed of the car to $(1+\beta)v$,this angle changes to $45^{\circ}$. The value of $\beta$ is close to...
