Q.

A river of width ω is flowing with a uniform velocity v. A boat starts moving from point P also with velocity v relative to the river. The direction of resultant velocity is always perpendicular to the line joining boat and the fixed point R. Point Q is on the opposite side of the river. P,Q and R are in a straight line. If PQ=QR=ω, find the trajectory of the boat.

Detailed Solution

Since, the resultant velocity is always perpendicular to the line joining boat and R, the boat is moving in a circle of radius 2ω and centre at R.

A river of width omega is flowing with a uniform velocity v. A boat starts  moving from point P also With velocity v relative to the river. The  direction of resultant velocity
