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 bullets are fired horizontally and simultaneously towards each other from the rooftops of two buildings (building being \(100~\text{m}\) apart and being of the same height of \(200~\text{m}\)) with the same velocity of \(25~\text{m/s}.\) When and where will the two bullets collide?
\((g = 10~\text{m/s}^2)\)

1. After \(2~\text{s}\) at a height of \(180~\text{m}\)
2. After \(2~\text{s}\) at a height of \(20~\text{m}\)
3. After \(4~\text{s}\) at a height of \(120~\text{m}\)
4. They will not collide.
