Determine the necessary conditions of optimum to bring the boat from point 1 $(0,0)$ to point 2 $(x,y)$ for a minimum time, $y$ isn't specified.
Equation for fluid:
$$ s(x)=-frac{2}{625} x^2 + frac{8}{25}x $$
Plot[-fluid, {x, -100, 150},
AspectRatio -> Automatic, {PlotRange -> All}]
FindRoot[fluid, {x, 99}]
Doing this in Math I got that width of a fluid is $100$ so I know the coordinate $x$ of 2nd point.
The boat is traveling with $v=mathrm{const}$ and $beta$ is the angle between $v$ and positive $x$ axis.
Can you help me to solve this?
