If the driver of car K sees car L as moving due east then its speed must be smaller than the speed of L. If the driver of car L sees car M as moving due east then its speed must be smaller than the speed of M. Which of the following relations between the speeds of the cars is/are possibly correct?

9. The velocity of the river is constant and it is in west-east direction. Three swimmers A, B and C start to swim from point O at constant velocities v A, v B and v C with respect to river. Swimmer B reaches at point M at the opposite riverbank. page - 25 v r Answer the following questions. a) Swimmer A reaches at point at the opposite riverbank. b) Swimmer C reaches at point at the opposite riverbank. c) Compare the times of swimmers to reach the opposite riverbank. d) Compare the velocities of swimmers with respect to the ground. a) K b) S c) The vertical components of B and C are equal and that of A is smaller. So, the times of them to reach opposite riverbank is related as A>B=C d) B=C>A (see the orange arrows in the figure.)
page - 25 10. The velocity of the river is constant and it is in west-east direction. A swimmer starts to swim from point O directly towards point A at a velocity of v s with respect to river and it reaches at point B at the opposite riverbank. The horizontal displacement of the swimmer is x, the time to reach the opposite riverbank is t and the velocity of the swimmer with respect to ground is v. v r v v r x v B / How would x, t and v change if the velocity of the river were greater? x :. t :. v :. When v r increases, x and v increase. v s is the same than t will be the same. Time depends on the vertical component.
