Resultant Velocity given Moving Boat Velocity Solution

STEP 0: Pre-Calculation Summary

Formula Used

Resultant Velocity = Boat Velocity/cos(Angle)
V = v_b/cos(θ)
This formula uses 1 Functions, 3 Variables

Functions Used

cos - Cosine of an angle is the ratio of the side adjacent to the angle to the hypotenuse of the triangle., cos(Angle)

Variables Used

Resultant Velocity - (Measured in Meter per Second) - Resultant Velocity is the sum of its vector velocities. The sum of the vector forces on an object equals the scalar product of its mass and acceleration vector.
Boat Velocity - (Measured in Meter per Second) - Boat Velocity which is free to move about a vertical axis.
Angle - (Measured in Radian) - Angle made with the direction of the boat aligned in the direction of the resultant velocity or made with the direction of the flow.

STEP 1: Convert Input(s) to Base Unit

Boat Velocity: 6.42 Meter per Second --> 6.42 Meter per Second No Conversion Required
Angle: 50 Degree --> 0.872664625997001 Radian (Check conversion here)

STEP 2: Evaluate Formula

Substituting Input Values in Formula

V = v_b/cos(θ) --> 6.42/cos(0.872664625997001)

Evaluating ... ...

V = 9.9877469684419

STEP 3: Convert Result to Output's Unit

9.9877469684419 Meter per Second --> No Conversion Required

FINAL ANSWER

9.9877469684419 ≈ 9.987747 Meter per Second <-- Resultant Velocity

(Calculation completed in 00.007 seconds)

What is Moving-Boat Technique for measurement of Velocity?

The Moving- Boat Technique measures the velocity over the width of a segment by suspending the current meter at a constant depth during the traverse of the boat across the stream. The measured velocity and the additional information of the depth sounding gives the required data for determining the discharge.
