(a) What is the magnitude of the passenger's velocity relative to the water? (b) How long does it take for the passenger to walk a distance of 15.3 m on the boat? (c) How long does it take for the passenger to cover a distance of 15.3 m on the water?

a diver jumps from a boat and descends to a depth of 20m. she skirts a coral reef and estimates that she has traveled 30 m. she turns to the right 30 degrees to continue along the reef and swims another 25m at the same depth. how far is she from the boat?
A Chinook (King) salmon (Genus Oncorynchus) can jump out of water with a speed of 5.55 m/s. If the salmon is in a stream with water speed equal to 1.65 m/s, how high in the air can the fish jump if it leaves the water traveling vertically upwards relative to the Earth?
A river 109.5 m wide flows toward the south at 35.0 m/min. A girl on the west bank wishes to reach the east bank in the least possible time. She can swim 109.5 m in still water in 1.10min. How long does it take her to cross the river? Also how far downstream does she travel? What is her velocity relative to land?find the magnitude and direction south of east? Also what is the total distance she traveled? And last in what direction must she swim if she wishes to travel straight across the river?

In an amusement park water slide, people slide down an essentially frictionless tube. The top of the slide is 3.2 m above the bottom where they exit the slide, moving horizontally, 1.2 m above a swimming pool. What horizontal distance do they travel from the exit point before hitting the water?
A North American river otter wants to cross the North Saskatchewan river. It can swim at a speed of 2.75 m/s. In that location, the distance directly across the river is 45.0 m. a) How much time does the otter take to get to the other side, if it points directly across the river? b) If the current velocity is 2.5 m/s, how many metres downstream will the current have carried the otter when it gets to the other side? c) Using the same velocity, calculate the otter's velocity, relative to the bank from where it started.
