An aeroplane is to go along straight line from $A$ to $B$, and back again. The relative speed with respect to wind is $V$. The wind blows perpendicular to line $AB$ with speed $v$. The distance between $A$ and $B$ is $\ell $. The total time for the round trip is

  • A

    $\frac{{2\ell }}{{\sqrt {{V^2} - {v^2}} }}$

  • B

    $\frac{{2v\ell }}{{{V^2} - {v^2}}}$

  • C

    $\frac{{2V\ell }}{{{V^2} - {v^2}}}$

  • D

    $\frac{{2\ell }}{{\sqrt {{V^2} + {v^2}} }}$

A particle $(A)$ moves due north at $3\,km / h$ another particle $(B)$ due west at $4\,km / h$. The relative velocity of $A$ with respect to $B$ is $\left(\tan 37^{\circ}=3 / 4\right)$

A steam boat goes across a lake and comes back $(a)$ On a quite day when the water is still and $(b)$ On a rough day when there is uniform air current so as to help the journey onward and to impede the journey back. If the speed of the launch on both days was same, in which case it will complete the journey in lesser time

On a calm day, a boat can go across a lake and return in time $T_0$ at a speed $V$. On a rough day, there is uniform current at speed $v$ to help the onward journey and impede the return journey. If the time taken to go across and return on the rough day be $T$, then $T / T_0$ is
