Answer:

Vr = 3.24m/s

The boat is going 3.24m/s relative to the bank of the river.

Explanation:

The relative speed of the boat to the bank Vr is the resultant of speed of boat relative to the water Vb and the speed of boat as a result of the water current or wind Vw

Vr = √(Vb^2 + Vw^2) .....1

Given;

Vb = 2.6m/s

Vw = distance downstream/time = 690m/355s

Vw = 1.94m/s

From equation 1 above; substituting the values

Vr = √(2.6^2 + 1.94^2)

Vr = 3.24m/s

The boat is going 3.24m/s relative to the bank of the river.

qwelly [4]

Answer:

12 m/s

Explanation:

English Translation

At what maximum speed is the cyclist traveling for a short time if he has a maximum power of 420W and at this speed he must overcome the resistance 35N.

The Power, P, expended by a moving body with velocity, v, moving against a resistive force of F is given as

P = Fv

P = 420 W

F = 35 N

v = ?

420 = 35v

v = (420/35) = 12 m/s

In Polish/Po polsku

Moc P, wydana przez poruszające się ciało z prędkością v, poruszająca się przeciw sile oporu F, jest podana jako

P = Fv

P = 420 W

F = 35 N

v = ?

420 = 35v

v = (420/35) = 12 m/s

Hope this Helps!!!

Mam nadzieję że to pomoże!!!
