A man rows to a place 48 Km distance and back in 14 hours. He finds that he can row 4 Km with the stream in the same time 3 Km against the stream. The rate off the stream is
48/4/X + 48/3/X = 14 12X + 16X =14 X = 1/2 Speed in downstream = 8 Kmph Speed in up stream = 6 Kmph Then the Rate of stream = 1/2 (8 - 6) = 1 Kmph
In a stream running at 2 Kmph, a motor boat goes 10 Km upstream and back again to the starting point in 55 minutes. Find the speed of motor boat in still water
A man can row 24 kmph in still water. It takes him thrice as long to row up as to row down the river. Find the rate of the stream?
