A river is \(1\) km wide. The banks are straight and parallel. The current is \(5\) km/h and is parallel to the banks. A boat has a maximum speed of \(3\) km/h in still water. In what direction should the boat head so as to arrive at point \(B\) directly opposite to its starting point \(A\)?

1. directly across the river.
2. head \(53^{\circ}\) upstream from the line \(AB\).
3. head \(37^{\circ}\) upstream from the line \(AB\).
4. the trip from \(A\) to \(B\) is not possible with this speed.

Two particles \(A\) and \(B,\) move with constant velocities \(\vec{v_1}\) and \(\vec{v_2}.\) At the initial moment their position vector are \(\vec {r_1}\) and \(\vec {r_2}\) respectively. The conditions for particles \(A\) and \(B\) for their collision to happen will be:

1. \(\vec{r_{1  }} . \vec{v_{1}}   = \vec{r_{2  }} . \vec{v_{2}}\) 2. \(\vec{r_{1}} \times\vec{v_{1}}   = \vec{r_{2}} \times \vec {v_{2}}\)
3. \(\vec{r_{1}}-\vec{r_{2}}=\vec{v_{1}} - \vec{v_{2}}\) 4. \(\frac{\vec{r_{1}} - \vec{r_{2}}}{\left|\vec{r_{1}} -  \vec{r_{2}}\right|} =   \frac{\vec{v_{2}} -  \vec{v_{1}}}{\left|\vec{v_{2}} -   \vec{v_{1}}\right|}\)
