How long will it take the boat to cross the river

Reference no: EM13704811

Question: A motorboat travels with a heading of 30 degrees north of east in order to compensate for the current in the river. As a result, it travels directly east with respect to the shore, as shown. The river's current is 2 m/s south.

Part A: How long will it take the boat to cross the 700 m wide river?

I need expert help to solve the above question.
