Q:
Ratio between speed of boat in still water to speed of stream is 7 : 2. If 126 km is travelled downstream in 3.5 hours then find the difference between speed of boat in still water to speed of stream(in kmph)?
1268 0

Answer : 4. "20"

Q:
The speed of the current is 5 km / hour. A motorboat goes 10 km upstream and back again to the starting point in 50 minutes. The speed (in km / hour) of the motorboat in still water is:
996 0

Answer : 3. "25 "

Q: 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? 1335 0

Answer : 4. "8:3"
Explanation :
Answer: D) 8:3 Explanation: Let the speed of the boat upstream be p kmph and that of downstream be q kmph Time for upstream = 8 hrs 48 min = 845hrs Time for downstream = 4 hrs Distance in both the cases is same. => p x 845= q x 4 => 44p/5 = 4q => q = 11p/5 Now, the required ratio of Speed of boat : Speed of water current = q+p2:q-p2 => (11p/5 + p)/2 : (11p/5 - p)/2 => 8 : 3

Q:
A boat travels 24 km upstream in 6 hours and 20 km downstream in 4 hours. Then the speed of boat in still water and the speed of current are respectively.
938 0

Answer : 2. "4.5 kmph and 0.5 kmph"

Q:
A man swims downstream distance of 15 km in 1 hour. If the speed of the current is 5 km/ hr, the time taken by the man to swim the same distance upstream is :
973 0

Answer : 4. "3 hrs"

Q: A man went downstream for 28 km in a motor boat and immediately returned. It took the man twice as long to make the return trip. If the speed of the river flow were twice as high, the trip downstream and back would take 672 minutes. Find the speed of the boat in still water and the speed of the river flow. 52327 0

Answer : 2. "9 km/hr, 3 km/hr"
Explanation :
Answer: B) 9 km/hr, 3 km/hr Explanation: Let the speed of the boat = p kmph Let the speed of the river flow = q kmph From the given data, 2 x 28p + q = 28p - q => 56p - 56q -28p - 28q = 0 => 28p = 84q => p = 3q. Now, given that if 283q + 2q + 283q - 2q = 67260=> 285q + 28q = 67260=> q = 3 kmph=> x =3q = 9 kmph Hence, the speed of the boat = p kmph = 9 kmph and the speed of the river flow = q kmph = 3 kmph.

Q:
A boat running downstreams covers a distance of 30 kms in 2 hours. While coming back the boat takes 6 hours to cover the same distance. If the speed of the current is half that of the boat, what is the speed of that boat in kmph?
1175 0

Answer : 3. "10"

Q:
A man can row 30 km downstream and return in a total of 8 hours. If the speed of the boat in still water is four times the speed of the current, then the speed of the current is:
1451 0

Q:
