A man, who can row a boat at 3 ms−1 in still water, wants to cross a river from A to B as shown in the
diagram. AB is perpendicular to both banks of the river. The river, which is 50 m wide, is flowing at
1 ms−1 in the direction shown. The man points his boat at an angle a° to the bank. Find

(i) the angle a, [2]

(ii) the resultant speed of the boat from A to B, [2]

(iii) the time taken for the boat to travel from A to B. [2]

On another occasion the man points the boat in the same direction but the river speed has increased to
1.8 ms−1 and as a result he lands at the point C.

(iv) State the time taken for the boat to travel from A to C and hence find the distance BC. [2]

MARK SCHEME
Maximum Mark: 80

Published

This mark scheme is published as an aid to teachers and candidates, to indicate the requirements of the
examination. It shows the basis on which Examiners were instructed to award marks. It does not indicate the
details of the discussions that took place at an Examiners’ meeting before marking began, which would have
considered the acceptability of alternative answers.

bestexamhelp.com
Mark schemes should be read in conjunction with the question paper and the Principal Examiner Report for
Teachers.

Cambridge International will not enter into discussions about these mark schemes.

Cambridge International is publishing the mark schemes for the October/November 2017 series for most
Cambridge IGCSE®, Cambridge International A and AS Level components and some Cambridge O Level
components.

MARK SCHEME NOTES

The following notes are intended to aid interpretation of mark schemes in general, but individual mark schemes
may include marks awarded for specific reasons outside the scope of these notes.

Types of mark

M Method marks, awarded for a valid method applied to the problem.

A Accuracy mark, awarded for a correct answer or intermediate step correctly obtained. For accuracy marks
to be given, the associated Method mark must be earned or implied.

B Mark for a correct result or statement independent of Method marks.

When a part of a question has two or more ‘method’ steps, the M marks are in principle independent unless the
scheme specifically says otherwise; and similarly where there are several B marks allocated. The notation ‘dep’
is used to indicate that a particular M or B mark is dependent on an earlier mark in the scheme.

Abbreviations
