$A$ boat having a speed of $5 \, km/hr$ in still water crosses a river of width $1 \, km$ along the shortest possible path in $15 \, minutes$. Find the speed of the river in $km/hr$.

On a two-lane road,car $A$ is travelling with a speed of $36 \; km/h$. Two cars $B$ and $C$ approach car $A$ in opposite directions with a speed of $54 \; km/h$ each. At a certain instant,when the distance $AB = AC = 1 \; km$,car $B$ decides to overtake car $A$ before car $C$ does. What minimum acceleration (in $m/s^2$) of car $B$ is required to avoid an accident?

$A$ $2\,m$ wide truck is moving with a uniform speed $v_0=8\,m/s$ along a straight horizontal road. $A$ pedestrian starts to cross the road with a uniform speed $v$ when the truck is $4\,m$ away from him. The minimum value of $v$ so that he can cross the road safely is $...........\,m/s$.

$A$ steamboat goes across a lake and comes back $(a)$ on a quiet day when the water is still and $(b)$ on a rough day when there is a uniform air current so as to help the journey onward and to impede the journey back. If the speed of the launch on both days was the same,in which case will it complete the journey in lesser time?

The figure shows two ships moving in the $x-y$ plane with velocities $V_A$ and $V_B$. The ships move such that $B$ always remains north of $A$. The ratio $\frac{V_A}{V_B}$ is equal to ........

$A$ train of $150 \; m$ length is going towards the north direction at a speed of $10 \; m/s$. $A$ parrot flies at a speed of $5 \; m/s$ towards the south direction parallel to the railway track. The time taken by the parrot to cross the train is: (in $; s$)
