The current of a stream runs at the rate of 2 km per hr. A motor boat goes 10 km upstream and back again to the starting point in 55 min. Find the speed of the motor boat in still water?

A boat covers a certain distance downstream in 4 hours but takes 6 hours to return upstream to the starting point. If the speed of the stream be 3 km/hr, find the speed of the boat in still water
|
Answer
|
A man can row three-quarters of a kilometre against the stream in 11$ \dfrac{1}{4} $ minutes and down the stream in 7$ \dfrac{1}{2} $ minutes. The speed in km/hr of the man in still water is:

The speed of a boat in still water is 8 kmph. If it can travel 1 km upstream in 1 hr, what time it would take to travel the same distance downstream?
|
Answer
|
A boat running upstream takes 8 hours 48 minutes to cover a certain distance, while it takes 4 hours to cover the same distance running downstream. What is the ratio between the speed of the boat and speed of the water current respectively?
|
Answer
|
In a river flowing at 2 km/hr, a boat travels 32 km upstream and then returns downstream to the starting point. If its speed in still water be 6 km/hr, find the total journey time.

Tap A can fill the tank completely in 6 hrs while tap B can empty it by 12 hrs. By mistake, the person forgot to close the tap B, As a result, both the taps, remained open. After 4 hrs, the person realized the mistake and immediately closed the tap B. In how much time now onwards, would the tank be full?

Answer
|
A man rows to a place 48 km distant and come back in 14 hours. He finds that he can row 4 km with the stream in the same time as 3 km against the stream. The rate of the stream is:
