A.
zero
B.
$$2\,km\,{h^{ - 1}}$$
C.
$$10\,km\,{s^{ - 1}}$$

A river is flowing from west to east at a speed of $$5$$ metres per minute. A man on the south bank of the river, capable of swimming at $$10$$ metres per minute in still water, wants to swim across the river in the shortest time. He should swim in a direction-
A boat which has a speed of $$5 km/hr$$ in still water crosses a river of width $$1 \,km$$ along the shortest possible path in $$15 \,minutes.$$ The velocity of the river water in $$km/hr$$ is-
In $$1.0\,s,$$ a particle goes from point $$A$$ to point $$B,$$ moving in a semicircle of radius $$1.0 \,m$$ (see Figure). The magnitude of the average velocity-
A ball is dropped vertically from a height $$d$$ above the ground. It hits the ground and bounces up vertically to a height $$\frac{d}{2}.$$ Neglecting subsequent motion and air resistance, its velocity $$v$$ varies with the height $$h$$ above the ground as-
