Speed of the boat upstream = 36/9 = 4 kmph
Speed of the boat in downstream = 36/6 = 6 kmph
Speed of stream = 6-4/2 = 1 kmph
Let the distance in one direction = k kms
Speed in still water = 4.5 kmph
Speed of river = 1.5
Hence, speed in upstream = 4.5 - 1.5 = 3 kmph
Speed in downstream = 4.5 + 1.5 = 6 kmph
Time taken by Rajesh to row upwards = k/3 hrs
Time taken by Rajesh to row downwards = k/6 hrs
Now, required Average speed =
Therefore, the average speed of the whole journey = 4kmph.
Speed in downstream = 96/8 = 12 kmph
Speed of current = 4 km/hr
Speed of the boatman in still water = 12 ? 4 = 8 kmph
Speed in upstream = 8 ? 4 = 4 kmph
Time taken to cover 8 km upstream = 8/4 = 2 hours.
Downstream speed = 72km/8hrs = 9 kmph
upstream speed = 84km/12hrs = 7 kmph
speed of boat = avg of downstream and upstream speeds
speed of boat = (9+7)/2kmph = 8 kmph.
current speed = half of the difference of downstream and upstream speeds
currend speed = (9-7)/2kmph = 1 kmph
Let Speed of boat in still water = b
Let Speed of still water = w
Then we know that,
Speed of Upstream = U = boat - water
Speed of Downstream = D = boat + water
Given, U + D = 82
b - w + b + w = 82
2b = 82
=> b = 41 kmph
From the given data,
41 - w = 105/3 = 35
w = 6 kmph
Now,
b + w = 126/t
=> 41 + 6 = 126/t
=> t = 126/47 = 2.68 hrs.
Speed in still water = Average of Speed in Upstream and speed in Downstream
= 1/2 (12 + 6) kmph = 9 kmph.
Let the speed of the man in still water = p kmph
Speed of the current = s kmph
Now, according to the questions
(p + s) x 10 = (p - s) x 15
2p + 2s = 3p - 3s
=> p : s = 5 : 1
Hence, ratio of his speed to that of current = 5:1.
72 --- 9
? ---- 1
=> Down Stream = 8
45 ---- 9
? ---- 1
=> Up Stream = 5
Speed od current S = ?
S = (8 - 5)/2 = 1.5 kmph.
Given speed of the person = 8 1/2 = 17/2 kmph
Let the speed of the stream = x kmph
speed of upstream = 17/2 - x
speed of downstream = 17/2 + x
But given that,
2(17/2 - x) = 17/2 + x
=> 3x = 17/2
=> x = 2.83 kmph.
Let the speed of boat and stream be x and y kmph respectively.
According to question
d/x+y + d/x-y = 5h 15m or 21/4 hrs ......(i)
and 2d/x-y = 7...... (ii)
From eq. (i) and (ii)
2d/x+y = 7/2
Hence, Amith will take to row 2d km distance downstream in 7/2 hrs
= 3.5 hrs
= 3 hrs 30 min.
