$A$ boat covers a certain distance between two spots in a river taking $t_1$ hours going downstream and $t_2$ hours going upstream. What time will be taken by the boat to cover the same distance in still water?

Car $A$ is moving to the East with a speed of $30 \text{ km/h}$, and car $B$ is moving to the North with the same speed. What is the velocity of car $B$ as measured from car $A$?

Ram moves in the east direction at a speed of $6 \, m/s$ and Shyam moves $30^{\circ}$ east of north at a speed of $6 \, m/s$. The magnitude of their relative velocity is ........ $m/s$.

$A$ river is flowing from $W$ to $E$ with a speed of $5 \, m/min$. $A$ man can swim in still water with a velocity of $10 \, m/min$. In which direction should the man swim to take the shortest possible path to reach the opposite bank (South)?

$A$ glass windscreen,whose inclination with the vertical can be changed,is mounted on a car. The car moves horizontally with a speed of $2\,m/s$. At what angle $\alpha$ with the vertical should the windscreen be placed so that the rain drops falling vertically downwards with velocity $6\,m/s$ strike the windscreen perpendicularly?

The speed of a swimmer is $4\,km\,h^{-1}$ in still water. If the swimmer makes his strokes normal to the flow of a river of width $1\,km$,he reaches a point $750\,m$ downstream on the opposite bank. The speed of the river water is $.........\,km\,h^{-1}$.
