B. If the person swims at constant speed, how long does it take them to swim across the 40 m wide river?
C. How far downstream will the person drift?
D. At what direction will the person have to swim to reach a point directly across the river?
E. If the river's current increases (is faster), will the person take more or less time to cross the river?
