2) A small motor boat has a speed of 8 m/sec in still water. A river (20 meters wide) is flowing East at 5 m/sec. a) If the pilot aims the boat straight across the river, calculate the location of where the boat reaches the other side, and how long (time) it takes. b) If the pilot returns to the first side. and wants the boat to go straight across the river - how does the pilot aim the boat, and how long does it take? c) Suppose the pilot aimed the boat 30 degrees upstream - calculate where the boat hits the other side, and how long (time) it takes.
