The stream of a river is flowing with a speed of $2\,km/h$. $A$ swimmer can swim at a speed of $4\,km/h$. What should be the direction of the swimmer with respect to the flow of the river to cross the river straight (in $^\circ$)?

Two cars,at a certain instant,are $50 \ km$ apart on a line running from south to north. The one farther north is moving west at $25 \ km/hr$. The other is moving towards north at $25 \ km/hr$. How long do they take to reach their distance of closest approach (in $min$)?

$A$ steam boat goes across a lake and comes back: $(i)$ on a quiet day when the water is still and $(ii)$ on a rough day when there is a uniform current so as to help the journey onward and to impede the journey back. If the speed of the launch,on both days,was same,the time required for the complete journey on the rough day as compared to that on the quiet day,will be

$A$ train is moving slowly on a straight track with a constant speed of $2 \,ms^{-1}$. $A$ passenger in that train starts walking at a steady speed of $2 \,ms^{-1}$ to the back of the train in the opposite direction of the motion of the train. To an observer standing on the platform directly in front of that passenger, the velocity of the passenger appears to be:

$Assertion$ : 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.

$A$ person aiming to reach the exactly opposite point on the bank of a stream is swimming with a speed of $0.5\, m/s$ at an angle of $120^\circ$ with the direction of flow of water. The speed of water in the stream is..........$m/s$.
