Question

Can someone plss helpp?? :)

Answer 1

C. The canoe's path will be a diagonal line from northeast to southwest.

Explanation:

We can solve this problem by using vector addition rules.

In fact, we know that:

- The velocity of the canoe has a component in the south direction, due to the velocity of the river which points towards south

- The canoe itself is trying to go from the eastern shore towards the western shore --> this means that the canoe has also a  component of the velocity in the west direction

This means that the resultant velocity of the canoe must be in a  direction intermediate between the directions of its two components: therefore, in the southwest direction.

Therefore, this means that
