A person swims east to west across a river that is 30


A person swims east to west across a river that is 30 meters wide.The person swims westward (compared to the water) at constant speedof 3 m/s. The river flows south at a steady speed of 5 m/s. Notethatm even though the person is swimming west compared to thewater, because of the current in the river, the actually have asouthwestern trajectory.

a. Determine the speed of the swimmer. (compared to the land)
b. Determine the total velocity of the swimmer compared to the land.
c. Determine the acceleration of the swimmer.
d. Determine the net force on the swimmer.
e. Determine how much time it takes the swimmer to cross theriver
f. Determine the coordinates of where they strike the other side ofthe river. Assume they start on the eastern shore at coordinates(0,0).
