Your friend is standing at the balcony of a building which is H meter high from the ground while you are standing at the parking lot situated at the ground level. Now you realize that you got the wrong keys of your car so you decided to throw the wrong keys to your friend and ask her to drop the original keys. She dropped the keys and at the same instant you threw the keys straight up with a speed of u. Determine the height at which both sets of keys cross each other. Take H=160 m,u=40 m/s and g=10 m/s^2

Dr. L. and his cat Kepler are coming home from fishing. They ended their trip on the southbank of a 1200 m wide river, directly across from where Caroline is waiting to pick them upon the north bank. They are in identical boats that travel at 4 m/s (VB) on still water. Theriver is normally ‘lazy’ and flows with negligible velocity. On a calm day, if they pointed theboats north, they would cross the river in exactly 300s. However, today, the river is flowingdue east with a constant velocity (VW) of 1 m/s relative to the ground. Kepler, because shedoesn’t know better (she is a cat after all), has not taken this into account. Without payingattention, Kepler keeps the boat pointed due north for the entire trip. A) Relative to the ground, what is Kepler’s velocity? Derive an algebraic solution(in terms of VB and VW only) and then give a numerical answer (three significant figures isfine) expressed in degrees relative to due north (e.g. ‘42.3° west of north’).
