Problem

A boat moves with velocity vB=10i^+6j^ km h−1\mathbf{v}_B=10\hat{i}+6\hat{j}\,\text{km h}^{-1} with respect to the ground, while the river water flows with velocity vR=3i^−4j^ km h−1\mathbf{v}_R=3\hat{i}-4\hat{j}\,\text{km h}^{-1}. Determine the velocity of the boat relative to the river, vB rel R\mathbf{v}_{B\,\text{rel}\,R}. a) 13i^+2j^ km h−113\hat{i}+2\hat{j}\,\text{km h}^{-1} b) 7i^+10j^ km h−17\hat{i}+10\hat{j}\,\text{km h}^{-1} c) −7i^−10j^ km h−1-7\hat{i}-10\hat{j}\,\text{km h}^{-1} d) 7i^+2j^ km h−17\hat{i}+2\hat{j}\,\text{km h}^{-1}
