Old Man River Keeps Moving... Suppose the man in Problem 28 again enters the current at (1, 0) but this time decides to swim so that his velocity vector \(\mathbf{V}_{s}\) is always directed toward the west beach. Assume that the speed \(\left|\mathbf{v}_{s}\right|=v_{s}\) is a constant. Show that a mathematical model for the path of the swimmer in the river is now

\(\frac{d y}{d x}=-\frac{v_{r}}{v_{s}}\).
