Zoe walks due west at 3km/hr on the deck of a boat which is sailing north at 15km/hrin still water (no current). Find the velocity of Zoe relative to the surface of the water.To begin your solution, use a cartesian plane with the y axis pointing north and expressVzb (the velocity of Zoe relative to the boat) and vbw (the velocity of the boat relative tothe water) in component form.
