$A$ boat is moving with a velocity of $3\hat i + 4\hat j$ in a river,and the water is moving with a velocity of $-3\hat i - 4\hat j$ with respect to the ground. The relative velocity of the boat with respect to the water is:

The speed of a swimmer is $4\,km\,h^{-1}$ in still water. If the swimmer makes his strokes normal to the flow of a river of width $1\,km$,he reaches a point $750\,m$ downstream on the opposite bank. The speed of the river water is $.........\,km\,h^{-1}$.

On a long horizontally moving belt,a child runs to and fro with a speed $9 \; km \; h^{-1}$ (with respect to the belt) between his father and mother located $50 \; m$ apart on the moving belt. The belt moves with a speed of $4 \; km \; h^{-1}$. For an observer on a stationary platform outside,what is the:
$(a)$ speed of the child running in the direction of motion of the belt?
$(b)$ speed of the child running opposite to the direction of motion of the belt?
$(c)$ time taken by the child in $(a)$ and $(b)$?
Which of the answers alter if motion is viewed by one of the parents?
