A diver explores a shallow reef off the coast of Belize. She initially swims 90.0 m north, makes a turn to the east and continues for 200.0 m, then follows a big grouper for 80.0 m in the direction 30 north of east. In the meantime, a local current displaces her by 150.0 m south. Assuming the current is no longer present, in what direction and how far should she now swim to come back to the point where she started?

(a) What is the average speed (in m/s) of the river in the gorge? |m/s (b) What is the average speed (in m/s) of the water in the river downstream of the falls when it widens to 59 m and its depth increases to an average of 47 m? |m/s
Joe D. Curious is exploring a river with a strong current. He paddles upstream by day taking measurements and readings of water quality going 4 miles a day. He drops an anchor at night, but the current is so strong it still pushes his boat 3 miles downstream each night. His destination is the dam, which is 10 miles upstream from his starting point. If he starts his journey on June 1, when will he reach the dam? It does not take ten days.
7. A rowing boat is drifted off laterally by 12 m while crossing a river. Which flow velocity (in kn and m/s) does the river have when the boat crossed the 40 m wide river without course correction at a speed of 4 kn ? [flow rate 1.2 kn / 0.6173 m/s]
