A motorboat traveling from one shore to the other at a rate of 5m/s east encounters a current flowing at a rate of 3.5m/s north a. What is the resultant velocity?

Respuesta :

Answer:

Resultant velocity will be equal to 6.10 m/sec

Explanation:

We have given a motorbike is traveling with 5 m/sec in east

And a current is flowing at a rate of 3.5 m /sec in north

We know that east and north is perpendicular to each other

So resultant velocity will be vector sum of both velocity

So resultant velocity [tex]v=\sqrt{5^2+3.5^2}=6.10m/sec[/tex]

So resultant velocity will be equal to 6.10 m/sec
