Boats and Streams
The speed of a boat in still water in 15 km/hr and the rate of current is 3 km/hr. The distance travelled downstream in 12 minutes is:
1.2 km
1.8 km
2.4 km
3.6 km
Correct Answer:
3.6 km
Explanation:
Speed downstream = (15 + 3) kmph = 18 kmph.
Distance travelled =
❨
18 x
12
❩km = 3.6 km.

Boats and Streams
A boatman goes 2 km against the current of the stream in 1 hour and goes 1 km along the current in 10 minutes. How long will it take to go 5 km in stationary water?
A man rows to a place 48 km distant and come back in 14 hours. He finds that he can row 4 km with the stream in the same time as 3 km against the stream. The rate of the stream is:
Speed of a boat in standing water is 9 kmph and the speed of the stream is 1.5 kmph. A man rows to a place at a distance of 105 km and comes back to the starting point. The total time taken by him is:
In one hour, a boat goes 11 km/hr along the stream and 5 km/hr against the stream. The speed of the boat in still water (in km/hr) is:
A man takes twice as long to row a distance against the stream as to row the same distance in favour of the stream. The ratio of the speed of the boat (in still water) and the stream is:
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?
A boat can travel with a speed of 13 km/hr in still water. If the speed of the stream is 4 km/hr, find the time taken by the boat to go 68 km downstream.
The speed of boat upstream and speed of boat downstream are 7 km/h and 13 km/h, respectively. Then the speed of stream and the speed of boat in still water is?
The speed of a boat in still water is 10 km/h. If it can travel 26 km downstream and 14 km upstream in the same time , then the speed of stream is?
A boat goes 40 km. upstream in 8 hours and 36 km. downstream in 6 hours. The speed of the boat in standing water is?
