Detailed Solution

Velocity of river vr=2i^ 

Velocity of swimmer w. r. t river is

   vs=5cos30i^+5+sin30j^

      =4.33i^+2.5j^

       

Question Image

Using vR=vs+vr  we get

vR=2.33i^+2.5j^

Time taken by swimmer =Distancealongy-axisycomponentofvelocity

=2002.5=80s

Distance moved along xaxis,

OF=x component of relative ×  time

=2.33×80=186.4m
