Veronica can swim 3.0 m/s in still water. While trying to swim directly across a river from west to east, Veronica is pulled by current flowing southward at 2.0 m/s. If Veronica wants to end up directly across from where she starts, at what angle to the shore must she swim upstream? Show graphically and computationally. (Use a scale of 0.5 m/s = 1.0 cm) Veronica can swim 3.0 m/s in still water. While trying to swim directly across a river from west to east, Veronica is pulled by current flowing southward at 2.0 m/s.
