Answer:
a. 5.360m/s
b. -1.1m/s
c. 3.38m/s
Explanation:
V1 = 3.20j
V2 = 4.30i
Vp = 5.4(-i)
= -5.40i
a. Speed of boat 2 relative to shore
= v1 + v2
= 3.2j + 4.3i
Magnitude = √3 2²+4.3²
= √28.73
= 5.360m/s
b. Speed of passenger relative to boat 1
V(p,1) = vp + v2
= -5.40i + 4.3i
= -1.1m/s
c. Speed of passenger relative to share
V(p,s) = vp + v(2,s)
= -5.4i + 4.30i +3.2j
= -1.1i + 3.2j
Take magnitude
= √-1.1²+3.2²
= √ 1.21 +10.24
= √11.45
= 3.38m/s
