Answer:
4.02 km/hr
Explanation:
5 km/hr = 1.39 m/s
The swimmer's speed relative to the ground must have the same direction as line AC.
The vertical component of the velocity is:
uᵧ = us cos 45
uᵧ = √2/2 us
The horizontal component of the velocity is:
uₓ = 1.39 − us sin 45
uₓ = 1.39 − √2/2 us
Writing a proportion:
uₓ / uᵧ = 121 / 159
(1.39 − √2/2 us) / (√2/2 us) = 121 / 159
Cross multiply and solve:
159 (1.39 − √2/2 us) = 121 (√2/2 us)
220.8 − 79.5√2 us = 60.5√2 us
220.8 = 140√2 us
us = 1.115
The swimmer's speed is 1.115 m/s, or 4.02 km/hr.

Thermodynamics
Explanation:
Thermodynamics is the study of energy. First Law of Thermodynamics: Energy can be changed from one form to another, but it cannot be created or destroyed. The total amount of energy and matter in the Universe remains constant, merely changing from one form to another.
The distance of the canoeist from the dock is equal to length of the canoe, L.
<h3>
Conservation of linear momentum</h3>
The principle of conservation of linear momentum states that the total momentum of an isolated system is always conserved.
v(m₁ + m₂) = m₁v₁ + m₂v₂
where;
v is the velocity of the canoeist and the canoe when they are together
- u₁ is the velocity of the canoe
- u₂ velocity of the canoeist
- m₁ mass of the canoe
- m₂ mass of the canoeist
<h3>Distance traveled by the canoeist</h3>
The distance traveled by the canoeist from the back of the canoe to the front of the canoe is equal to the length of the canoe.
Thus, the distance of the canoeist from the dock is equal to length of the canoe, L.
