The width of the river is $1 \; km$. The velocity of the boat is $5 \; km/hr$. The boat covers the width of the river along the shortest possible path in $15 \; min$. The velocity of the river stream is:

Two towns $A$ and $B$ are connected by a regular bus service with a bus leaving in either direction every $T$ minutes. $A$ man cycling with a speed of $20 \; km/h$ in the direction $A$ to $B$ notices that a bus goes past him every $18 \; min$ in the direction of his motion,and every $6 \; min$ in the opposite direction. What is the period $T$ (in $min$) of the bus service and with what speed (assumed constant) do the buses ply on the road?

Two persons $A$ and $B$ are located in the $X-Y$ plane at the points $(0,0)$ and $(0,10)$ respectively. (The distances are measured in $MKS$ units). At time $t=0$, they start moving simultaneously with velocities $\overrightarrow{v}_A = 2\hat{j} \text{ m/s}$ and $\overrightarrow{v}_B = 2\hat{i} \text{ m/s}$ respectively. The time after which $A$ and $B$ are at their closest distance is:

$A$ motorboat is racing towards north at $25\; km/h$ and the water current in that region is $10\; km/h$ in the direction of $60^{\circ}$ east of south. Find the resultant velocity of the boat.

Rain is falling vertically with a speed of $12 \ ms^{-1}$. $A$ woman rides a bicycle with a speed of $12 \ ms^{-1}$ in the east to west direction. What is the direction in which she should hold her umbrella?

An observer moves with a constant speed along the line joining two stationary objects. He will observe that the two objects
