$A$ swimmer wants to cross a river from point $A$ to point $B$. Line $AB$ makes an angle of $30^{\circ}$ with the flow of the river. The magnitude of the velocity of the swimmer is the same as that of the river. The angle $\theta$ with the line $AB$ should be in degrees,so that the swimmer reaches point $B$.

  • A
    $30$
  • B
    $60$
  • C
    $90$
  • D
    $120$

$Assertion$ : The magnitude of velocity of two boats relative to the river is the same. Both boats start simultaneously from the same point on one bank and may reach the opposite bank simultaneously while moving along different paths.
$Reason$ : For boats to cross the river in the same time,the component of their velocity relative to the river in the direction normal to the flow should be the same.
