Three swimmers can swim equally fast relative to the water. they have a race to see who can swim across a flowing river in the least time. swimmer a swims perpendicular to the current and lands on the opposite shore downstream, because the current has swept him in that direction. swimmer b swims upstream at angle to the current, so that when she reaches the other side, she is straight across from where she started. swimmer c swims downstream at an angle theta in an attempt to take advantage of the current. who crosses the river in the least time?

the design of a ski jumping suit involves a trade-off between giving the skiers lift to get higher jumps and ensuring the skier does not face a lot of drag before the jump itself. an expansive suit may to lift the skier higher, but at the same time, it will also increase the air resistance. higher air resistance as the skier goes down the slope limits the speed of the jump. a big suit also increases the risk of losing balance or control, especially if there's a strong gust of wind. while technologically enhanced suits a lot, clothing is not the only factor in a ski jumper’s success. gathering speed while skiing down the slope, ensuring good speed on the ramp, and maintaining good body posture and form in the air all contribute to a ski jumper's success.

you get 2.3=1.21*\frac{a}2 or 4.6=1.21a or a=3.802 (b)
