Given a boat velocity of 4 m/s, East and a river velocity of 3 m/s, North, the resultant velocity of the boat will be 5 m/s at 36.9 degrees. Motorboat problems such as these are typically accompanied by three separate questions: What is the resultant velocity (both magnitude and direction) of the boat?
The primary formula used to calculate the displacement of a ship is based on its physical dimensions and block coefficient. The block coefficient is a dimensionless number that describes how closely the shape of a ship resembles a rectangular block. Displacement = Length × Breadth × Draft × Block Coefficient. Where:

27 sie 2023 · Distance and Displacement problems. Problem 1: A boat sailing through a river moved eastward for 5 km, then cross the river by moving 3 km southward. On reaching the other side it moved westward through 1 km and reached the jetty. Find the distance covered and displacement of the boat. Solution:
Problems with detailed solutions on displacement and distance of moving objects. Problem 1. An object moves from point A to point B to point C, then back to point B and then to point C along the line shown in the figure below. a) Find the distance covered by the moving object. b) Find the magnitude and direction of the displacement of the object.
The Relative Velocity and River Boat Problems Video Tutorial discusses the concept of relative velocity. The concept is applied to explain the analysis of the motion of planes moving amidst winds and the motion of boats heading up, down, and across a river in the presence of a current.
