(b) If car P brakes to a stop relative to Alex (and thus relative to the ground) in time at constant acceleration, what is its acceleration relative to Alex?
The initial velocity of P relative to Alex is -78 Km/hr and the final velocity is 0. Thus, the acceleration relative to Alex is

Example: A river has a current with a velocity of 1.0 m/s south. A boat, whose speed in still water is 5.0 m/s, is directed east across the 100 m wide river.

a) Use kinematics equation 2: x = xo + vot +1/2 at2 , where a = 0, xo = 0, vo = vbr, and x = 100 m
x= vot → solve for t t = x = 100 m = 20 svo 5.0 m/s
b) Use kinematics equation 2: y = yo + vot +1/2 at2 , where a = 0, yo = 0, vo = vrs
y = vot = (1.0 m/s)(20 s) = 20 m
c) The velocity of the boat relative to shore is the vector sum of the velocity of the boat relative to the river and the velocity of the river relative to the shore (current) vbs = vbr + vrs
*Hint: the pattern of subscripts are helpful in problem solving. On the right side of the equation, the two inner subscripts are the same (r). The outer subscripts (b and s) are sequentially the same as those for the relative velocity on the left side of the equation. ***

Example: If the person on the boat in the previous example wants to travel directly across river,a)What angle upstream must the boat be directed?b)With what speed will the boat cross the river?c)How long will it take the boat to reach the opposite shore?
Solution:To travel directly across the river, the velocity of the boat relative to the shore must be directly across the river. The vector form of the relative velocity equation
vbs = vbr + vrs is still valid.
a)Ө = sin -1 vrs = sin-1 1.0 m/s = 12�vbr 5.0 m/s
b) From the triangle in the diagram,vbs2 + vrs 2 = vbr 2 so,
vbs = √ vbr 2 - vrs 2
vbs = √ (5.0 m/s)2 – (1.0 m/s)2 = 4.9 m/s
c) The time is then t = y = 100 m = 20 svbs 4.9 m/s
