Question 1
A motorboat went downstream for 28 km and immediately returned. It took the boat 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.
Question 2
A boat sails downstream from point A to point B, which is 10 km away from A, and then returns to A. If the actual speed of the boat (in still water) is 3 km/h, the trip from A to B takes 8 hours less than that from B to A. What must the actual speed of the boat for the trip from A to B to take exactly 100 minutes?
Question 3
A boat sails down the river for 10 km and then up the river for 6 km. The speed of the river flow is 1 km/h. What should be the minimum speed of the boat for the trip to take a maximum of 4 hours?
Question 4
A man rows 6 km/h in still water. If the river is running at 3 km per hour, it takes him 45 minutes to row to a place and back. How far is the place?
Question 5
A boat goes 40 km upstream in 8 h and a distance of 49 km downstream in 7 h. The speed of the boat in still water is?
Question 6
The speed of the boat in still water is 12 km/h and the speed of the stream is 2 km/h. A distance of 8km, going upstream, is covered in?
Question 7
A motorboat went downstream for 28 km and immediately
returned. It took the boat 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.
Question 8
A train requires 7 seconds to pass a pole while it
requires 25 seconds to cross a stationary train which
is 378 metres long. Find the speed of the train.
Question 9
A boat sails downstream from point A to point B,
which is 10 km away from A, and then returns to
A. If the actual speed of the boat (in still water) is
3 km/h, the trip from A to B takes 8 hours less
than that from B to A. What must the actual speed
of the boat for the trip from A to B to take exactly
100 minutes?
(a) (b) 2 km/h
(c) 3 km/h (d) 4 km/h
