If the current takes him downstream we must find the resultant vector of the velocities: 
Then if the river is 3000 m-wide the swimmer will have to pass:
1.3520747 · 300 = 4056.14 m t = 4056.14 m : 1 m/s
a ) It takes 4056.15 seconds ( 1 hour 7 minutes and 36 seconds ) to cross the river.
b ) 0.91 · 3000 = 2730 m
He will be 2730 m downstream.
