Question
The speed of a boat in still water is 6 km/hr more than
that of the current. The time taken by the boat to cover 925 km downstream is 18.5 hours. Find the total time taken by boat to travel 750 km downstream and 45 km upstream.Solution
Therefore, downstream speed of the boat = 925/18.5 = 50 km/hr And, upstream speed of the boat = 6 km/hr Required time taken = (750/50) + (45/6) = 15 + 7.5 = 22.5 hours
The speed of the boat in still water is 9 km/hr and the speed of the stream is 6 km/hr. A boat goes 90 km downstream with its usual speed but at the tim...
A boat running downstream covers a distance of 42 km in 6 hrs and covering the same distance upstream in 14 hrs. What is the speed of a boat in still wa...
A motorboat covers a certain distance downstream in a river in 3 hours. It covers the same distance upstream in 3 and a half an hour. If the speed of th...
- A launch covers 225 km in downstream in 5 hours. If the upstream speed is one-third of the downstream speed, find the time needed to travel 150 km upstream...
A boat goes 12 km downstream in 2 hr and returns in 3 hr. Find speed of stream.
A boat can cover 130 km in downstream in 10 hours and 120 km in upstream in 8 hours. Find the speed of boat in still water
If the sum of upstream and downstream speed is 24 km/hr and the speed of the current is 5 km/hr. Then find time taken to cover 51 km in downward?
Speed of a boat in still water is three times the speed of the boat in upstream. If the boat takes 35 minutes to cover 35 km in downstream, then find th...
If a boat travels 18 km more in downstream than in upstream in 3 hours and if the speed of the Boat in still water is 20 kmph. Find the distance tra...
