Reference no: EM13490809

1. A river flows at a speed of 12m/s from north to south. A powerboat can move at a constant maximum speed of 23 m/s in still water.

What is the maximum velocity of the boat traveling upstream?

What is the maximum velocity of the boat traveling downstream?

If the boat were headed east across the river at its maximum speed, what would the resultant velocity of the boat be? (draw a picture)
