$A$ river is flowing from west to east at a speed of $8\,m/min$. $A$ man on the south bank of the river,capable of swimming at $20\,m/min$ in still water,wants to swim across the river in the shortest time. He should swim in a direction

Two particles $A$ and $B$ move with constant velocities $\vec{v}_1$ and $\vec{v}_2$. At the initial moment,their position vectors are $\vec{r}_1$ and $\vec{r}_2$ respectively. The condition for particles $A$ and $B$ to collide is:

$A$ slider block $A$ moves downward at a speed of $v_A = 2 \ m/s$,at an angle of $75^\circ$ with the horizontal as shown in the figure. The velocity of the portion of belt $B$ between ideal pulleys $C$ and $D$ with respect to $A$ is $v_{CD/A} = 2 \ m/s$ at an angle $\theta$ with the horizontal. The magnitude of the velocity of portion $CD$ of the belt when $\theta = 15^\circ$ is .......... $m/s$.

$A$ particle $(A)$ moves due north at $3\,km/h$ and another particle $(B)$ moves due west at $4\,km/h$. The relative velocity of $A$ with respect to $B$ is $(\tan 37^{\circ} = 3/4)$.

Two parallel rail tracks run north-south. Train $A$ moves north with a speed of $54\; km\; h^{-1},$ and train $B$ moves south with a speed of $90\; km\; h^{-1}.$ What is the velocity (in $m\; s^{-1}$) of a monkey running on the roof of the train $A$ against its motion (with a velocity of $18\; km\; h^{-1}$ with respect to the train $A$) as observed by a man standing on the ground?

$A$ passenger train of length $60\, m$ travels at a speed of $80\, km/hr$. Another freight train of length $120\, m$ travels at a speed of $30\, km/hr$. The ratio of times taken by the passenger train to completely cross the freight train when:
$(i)$ they are moving in the same direction,and
$(ii)$ in the opposite directions is
