That statement is false. It's exactly the opposite direction.

In circular motion, the "centripetal" force ... and therefore the centripetal acceleration ... points TOWARD the center.

Please help!!! A river has a constant current of 3 km per hour. If a motorboat, capable of maintaining a constant speed of 20km
PilotLPTM [1.2K]
Construct a vector diagram. It will be a right-angled triangle. One vector (the hypotenuse) represents the heading of the boat, one represents the current and one represents the resultant speed of the boat, which I'll call x. Their magnitudes are 20, 3 and x. Let the required angle = theta. We have: 

<span>theta = arcsin(3/20) = approx. 8.63° </span>

<span>The boat should head against the current in a direction approx. 8.63° to the line connecting the dock with the point opposite, or approx. 81.37° to the shore line. </span>

<span>x = sqrt(20^2 - 3^2) </span>
<span>= sqrt(400 - 9) </span>
<span>= sqrt 391 </span>

<span>The boat's crossing time = </span>
<span>0.5 km/(sqrt 391 km/hr) </span>
<span>= (0.5/sqrt 391) hr </span>
<span>= approx. 0.025 hr </span>
<span>= approx. 91 seconds</span>
