back-and-forth swings that the child completes each minute. Which of these describes the pattern in the graph?
A.The mother decreased the force of her push on the swing.
B.The potential energy and speed of the swing decreased over time.
C.The energy of the child on the swing changed from kinetic to potential.

Answer:
60 m
Explanation:
The boat has two separate motions:
1- A motion due north, with constant speed of 10 m/s
1- A motion due east, due to the current, at speed of 2 m/s
We know that the river is 300 m wide, so we can consider first motion 1) to find how much does it take for the boat to cross the river:
Now we can find how far downstream the boat moved by calculating the distance that the boat covered moving east during this time interval:
