Could someone me with this kinematics question? :

a swimmer heads directly across a river, swimming at 1.6 m/s relative to the water. she
arrives at a point 40 m downstream from the point directly across the river, which is 80 m
wide.

a) what is the speed of the river current?

b) what is the swimmer's speed relative to the shore?

c) in what direction should the swimmer head to arrive at the point directly opposite her
starting point?

d) how long would it take to cross the river swimming in the direction found in (c)?

This problem has been solved! see the answera non-uniform fire escape ladder is 6.0m long whenextended to the icy alley below. it is held at the top by africtionless pivot, and there is neglibible frictional force fromthe icy surface at the bottom. the ladder weighs 250n, and it'scenter of gravity is 2.0m along the ladder from the bottom. amother and child of total weight 750n are on the ladder 1.5m fromthe pivot. the ladder makes an angle θ with the horizontal.find the magnitude and direction ofa) the force exerted by the icy alley on the ladderb) the force exerted by the ladder on the pivotc) do your answers in part a and b depend on the angle?
