This is the concept of trigonometry, the direction of the John will be given by:
tan theta=opposite/adjacent
suppose:
a=theta
opposite=4 mph
adjacent=5.5 mph
tan a=4/5.5
a=tan^-1(4/5.5)
a=36
therefore the boat canoe will be moving 36 degrees from East, his direction will be 126 degrees south east

You are given four resistors, 2 ohms, 3 ohms, 5 ohms, and 10 ohms. Your friend say you can connect them so you obtain an equival
AlexFokin [52]

If we will connect the resistors 2ohms, 3ohms, 5ohms in series and the 10ohms resistance parallel then we get equivalent resistance of 5 ohms.

The equivalent circuit is,

R equivalent for the series connection is,

\begin{gathered} Req(S)=2+3+5=10ohms \\ Now,\text{ } \\ Req\text{ }for\text{ }10\text{ }ohms\text{ }and\text{ }10\text{ }ohms\text{ }is, \\ \frac{1}{Req}=\frac{1}{10}+\frac{1}{10}=\frac{2}{10}=\frac{1}{5} \\ So, \\ Req=5\text{ ohms} \end{gathered}

The equivalent resistance is 5 ohms.

So your friend is saying true.
