1. A boat that can travel with a velocity of 12 m/s in still water is moving at maximum speed against the current of a stream that flows with a velocity of 5 m/s relative to the Earth. What is the velocity of the boat relative to the bank of the stream? 3. A swimmer swims upstream with a velocity of 4 m/s rela-tive to the water. The velocity of the current is 3.5 m/s (downstream). What is the velocity of the swimmer relative to the bank?
