Answer:
The time it takes to get across is 240m divided by 3.8 m/s, which is 63.2 seconds. In that time the current has moved boat downstream by: 1.6 m times 63.2 seconds, or 101.1 meters. Then to get the resultant velocity, you need to add the velocity vectors. Use pythagorean theorem: resultant^2 = 3.8^2 + 1.6^2. The resultant velocity is 4.1 m/s. Does this make sense??
