Question
If a man cycles at 10 km/hr, then he arrives at a
certain place at 1 p.m .If he cycles at 15 km/hr, he will arrive at the same place at 11 am At what speed must he cycle to get there at noon?Solution
Let the total distance be = x km As per question, x/10-x/15=2 hours x = 60 kms If he cycles at the speed of 10 km/hr. so he take = 60/10= 6 hours So he starts his journey at = 7 am and to reach place at 12 pm he should cycles at the speed of = 60/5=12 km/hr
A boat's speed in still water is 12 km/hr, and the current’s speed is 4 km/hr. If the boat takes a total of 18 hours to travel ‘x’ km each in both...
A boat can cover 195 km in downstream in 10 hours and 140 km in upstream in 14 hours. Find the distance travelled by the boat in still water in 4 hours.
Ratio of speed of boat in downstream and speed of stream is 5:2, if speed of current is 4 km/hr, then find distance travelled (in km) upstream in 6 hours.
