Question

Use principles of physics to solve the problem and then verify youranswer using the simulation. Consider these four situations:
Case A: The boat speed is 6 m/s; the boat direction is 0 degrees;the river speed is 3 m/s.
Case B: The boat speed is 6 m/s; the boat direction is +30 degrees;the river speed is 3 m/s.
Case C: The boat speed is 6 m/s; the boat direction is -30 degrees;the river speed is 3 m/s.
Case D: The boat speed is 6 m/s; the boat direction is +15 degrees;the river speed is 3 m/s.
(a) Rank these cases by the time it takes to cross the river, fromlargest to smallest. Use only > and/or = signs in your ranking(e.g., B>A>C=D).

(b) Rank these cases by the distance traveled in crossing theriver, from largest to smallest.
