1.A motorboat was moving [E 20° S] at 50.0 km/h. The operator then turned the boat
E 20° N] and decreased the speed to 30.0 km/h over 5.0 min. Determine the average
acceleration of the boat.
2. A person decides to swim across a river 84 m wide that has a current moving with a
velocity of 0.40 m/s [E]. The person swims at 0.70 m/s N] relative to the water. K/U
