Question

The velocity of a person on the boat is 6m/s, and the velocity of the river is 8m/s.
Find the velocity of the person with respect to the river.

  1. 2
  2. 3
  3. 1
  4. 4

hintHint:

2 m/s

The correct answer is: 2


    Given: 
    The velocity of a person on a boat (Vp) = 6ms-1

    The velocity of the river (Vr)  = 8ms-1
    To find: 
    The velocity of a person with respect to the river (Vpr) =?
    Formula used: 
    Vpr  = Vp - Vr
    Solution: 
    Vpr  = 6ms-1 - 8ms-1
    Vpr = 2ms-1
    Answer:
    The velocity of a person with respect to the river is 2ms-1
