Particle $A$ (which was located at the origin at time $t=0$) is moving along the $x$-axis with a constant speed of $1 \,m/s$. The location of particle $B$, which is moving along the $y$-axis, is given by $y=ct^2$, where $c=1 \,m/s^2$. Find the speed of particle $A$ relative to particle $B$ at $t=1 \,s$.

  • A
    $\sqrt{5} \,m/s$
  • B
    $2 \,m/s$
  • C
    $1 \,m/s$
  • D
    $0 \,m/s$

$A$ boat is moving with a velocity $3i + 4j$ with respect to the ground. The water in the river is moving with a velocity $-3i - 4j$ with respect to the ground. The relative velocity of the boat with respect to the water is:

On a calm day,a boat can go across a lake and return in time $T_0$ at a speed $V$. On a rough day,there is a uniform current at speed $v$ that helps the onward journey and impedes the return journey. If the time taken to go across and return on the rough day is $T$,then $T / T_0$ is:

When is the relative velocity of two cars moving with unequal velocities less than the individual velocity of either car?

$A$ river is flowing with a velocity of $5 \ km/hr$ as shown in the figure. $A$ boat starts from $A$ and reaches the other bank. The width of the river is $b = 300 \ m$. The velocity of the boat in still water is $v_{br} = 3 \ km/hr$. If the boat aims to reach the point directly opposite to $A$ (point $B$),but due to the river flow,it reaches point $C$,what is the distance $AC$ covered by the boat? (Note: The boat is steered such that it maintains a straight path relative to the ground).

The width of the river is $1 \; km$. The velocity of the boat is $5 \; km/hr$. The boat covers the width of the river along the shortest possible path in $15 \; min$. The velocity of the river stream is:
