Answer:
Nora's boat is moving towards Sam at 5 km/hr
Explanation:
The question says that Nora is few meters behind Nancy and is still with respect to her that means the relative velocity between Nora and Nancy is zero
Vrel = 5 - Vnora= 0 ⇒ Vnora = 5km/hr
Pictorially we can represent the given condition as:
Nora-------few meters------Nancy ----------------- Sam
5km/hr 5km/hr →
Hence, Nora's boat is moving towards Sam at 5km/hr.

For help with this answer, we look to Newton's second law of motion:
Force = (mass) x (acceleration)
Since the question seems to focus on acceleration, let's get
'acceleration' all alone on one side of the equation, so we can
really see what's going on.
Here's the equation again:
Force = (mass) x (acceleration)
Divide each side by 'mass',
and we have: Acceleration = (force) / (mass) .
Now the answer jumps out at us: The rate of acceleration of an object
is determined by the object's mass and by the strength of the net force
acting on the object.
Galileo Galilei was the first scientist to perform experiments in order to test his ideas. He was also the first astronomer to systematically observe the skies with a telescope.
