The seawater through which a boat sails moves 4 knots towards
the East with respect to the bottom of the sea. The boat moves 15
knots with a direction of 60 degrees north of East with respect to
the seawater.
a) What is the velocity, magnitude and direction, of the boat with
respect to the bottom of the sea.
b) To navigate in a determined time interval and to a given destiny the boat requires a speed of 22 knots in a direction of 45 degrees west of North with respect to the bottom of the sea. What is it's velocity with respect to the water?
