Let the distance between M and N = a km Speed of boat in upstream = 24 – 15 = 9 kmph Speed of boat in downstream = 24 + 15 = 39 kmph It takes 38 hours to complete the whole distance, ⇒ a/39 + 1/2 × a/9 = 38 ⇒ a/39 + a/18 = 38 ⇒ 19a/234 = 38 ⇒ a = (38 × 234)/19 ⇒ a = 468 km
Speed of a boat in still water is 10 kmph and speed of stream is 7 kmph. A man rows to a place at a distance of 51 km and come back to starting point. T...
A boat travels downstream at a speed of 25 km/h and the stream's current adds an additional 3 km/h to its speed. How long will it take for the boat to t...
A man can row 32 km/hr in still water. It takes him thrice as long to row up as to row down the river. Find the rate of the current.
The boat's speed in still water is 20% greater than the speed of the stream. If it takes the boat 4 hours more to travel 176 km d...
A boy can swim in water with a speed of 16 km/hr in still water. If the speed of the stream is 9 km/hr, what will be the time taken by the boy to cover ...
The downstream speed of a boat is 6 km/hr more than its upstream speed and the ratio of the speed of the boat in still water to the speed of the stream ...
The Ship's speed in calm water exceeds that of the current by 20%. After sailing downstream for 4 hours, it traveled upstream for 4 hours with an increa...
Speed of a boat in still water is three times the speed of the boat in upstream. If the boat takes 20 minutes to cover 15 km in downstream, then find th...
A boat goes 5 km an hour in still water, but takes twice as much time in going the same distance against the current. The speed of the current (in km/ho...
A boat takes 28 hours for travelling downstream from point A to point B and coming back to point C midway between A and B. If the velocity of the stream...
