According to the Archimedes' principle, a floating object will experience an upthrust force from water, equal to the weight of water displaced (pushed aside). It will sink into the water until it reaches the point where the weight of the water pushed aside equals its own weight.
A boy can swim in water with a speed of 15 km/hr in still water. If the speed of the stream is 8 km/hr, what will be the time taken by the boy to cover ...
A boat can cover 180 km in downstream in 18 hours and 125 km in upstream in 5 hours. Find the distance travelled by the boat in still water in 10 hours.
A boat covers 150 km downstream in the same time it takes to cover 90 km upstream. If the speed of the stream is 5 km/h, determine the speed of the boat...
The speed of a boat in still water is three times the speed of the boat upstream. If the boat takes 30 minutes to cover 27 km downstream, then find the ...
A boat can travel 50 km upstream in 5 hours and 60 km downstream in 4 hours. Find the speed of the boat in still water.
The speed of a boat downstream is 20% more than the speed of the boat in still water. If the boat can travel a distance of 288 km upstream in 18 hours, ...
Speed of a boat in still water to speed of boat in upstream is 11: 9. If the boat can travel 260 km in downstream in 10 hours, then find the time taken ...
A man rows to a place 48 km distant and comes back in 14 hours. He finds that he can row 4 km with the stream at the same time as 3 km against the strea...
A boat traveled 100 km downstream. The boat's speed in still water is 30 km/h, and the stream's speed is 10 km/h. Calculate the time required for the bo...
