12. Two boys are at point X on one side of a river, 40 m wide and having a current of 1.0 m/s, flowing as shown. Simultaneously, they dive into the water in an attempt to reach point Y, directly opposite X. Both swim at 2.0 m/s relative to the water, but one directs himself so that his net motion corresponds to XY, while the other keeps his body perpendicular to the current and consequently lands at point Z. After landing, he runs along the shore to point Y at a speed of 6.0 m/s. Which boy arrives at Y first, and by how much time does he beat the other? 1.0 m/s-
1. Consider an object on some trajectory r(t) and define v = r' as the velocity with speed v = [r'|. (a) Show that we can write v = vT. (b) Show that we can write the acceleration as a = arT + anN where ar and an are the tangential and normal acceleration components that are func- tions of the speed and curvature. Explain why an object with constant speed can still experience an acceleration. (c) Consider a trajectory r(t) = (t² – 1,t – t³). Compute the curvature as well as the tangential and normal components of the acceleration.
