A man can swim at 4 ft/s in still water. He wishes to cross tje 40-ft wide river to point B, 30 ft downstream. If the river flows with a velocity of 2 ft/s, determine the speed of the man and the time needed to make the crossing. Note While in the water he must not direct himself toward point B to reach the point.
