A sailboat is traveling north at 10 km/h, relative to the water. The water is flowing north at 5
km/h. What is the velocity of the boat relative to ground? (Answer: 15 km/h) is the scholar
correct? Elaborate on your reasoning and justify your response
Since the water and the boat are traveling in the same direction, the velocities would combine. This means that relative to the ground, the boat is going 15 km/h.
