Calculate the % difference between the initial kinetic energy, and the final potential energy for each setting, was the mechanical energy conserved for each setting?

multiple

the displacement produced by the body.  

the amount of force subjected to the body.

when jerome paddle in flowing river towards east the net speed of jerome will increase

so the net speed of jerome will be given as

now the speed of paul will be same as it is given as he is running on the ground

so

so here we can say since the speed of jerome is more so he will win the race

now as we know the distance so the time difference is given as

so jerome will reach first and the time difference will be 203.55 s or 3.4 min
