1. Vector a represents the velocity (speed) and direction of a boat crossing a river. Vector b represents the velocity and direction of a strong west-to-east current the boat encounters. A. How do you think the current will affect the boat? 5 mph нь- 2 mph Sketch c to the right to show where you think the boat will go. B. Turn on Show resultant. Vector c is the resultant, or sum, of vectors a and b. In this case, c shows the resulting velocity and direction of the boat. What are the components of c?
