The boat traveled from the dock north to the 200-meter marker in the bay in less than 5 minutes, giving the passengers several more hours to fish.
Explanation:
Velocity is a physical quantity that describes the rate of change of displacement with time.
Velocity =
The quantity differs from speed in that it has both magnitude and direction.
From the options given above:
Displacement: The boat traveled in the north direction from the dock to a 200m mark.
Time taken: approximately less than 5 minutes was the duration of traveling.
This describes the boat's velocity accurately.

Explanation:
1)
The acceleration due to gravity is the acceleration that an object in free fall (acted upon the force of gravity only) would have.
It can be calculated using the equation:
(1)
where
G is the gravitational constant
is the Earth's mass
r is the distance of the object from the Earth's center
The pendulum in the problem is at an altitude of 3 times the radius of the Earth (R), so its distance from the Earth's center is
where
is the Earth's radius
Therefore, we can calculate the acceleration due to gravity at that height using eq.(1):
2)
The period of a simple pendulum is the time the pendulum takes to complete one oscillation. It is given by the formula
where
L is the length of the pendulum
g is the acceleration due to gravity at the location of the pendulum
Note that the period of a pendulum does not depend on its mass.
For the pendulum in this problem, we have:
L = 3 m is its length
is the acceleration due to gravity (calculated in part 1)
Therefore, the period of the pendulum is:
