A man can row 28/3 km ph in still water and he finds that it takes him thrice as much time to row up than as to row down the same distance in the river. The speed of the current is:a) 10/3 km/hr b) 28/9 km/hr c) 14/3 km/hr d) 9/2 km/hr |
|
Answer» Correct option: c) 14/3 km/hr Explanation: Let speed upstream be x km ph. Speed downstream = 3x km ph. Speed in still water= 1/2*(3x+x)=2x km ph 2x=28/3 therefore x=14/3 km ph, speed downstream =14 km ph Speed of the current= i/2*(14-14/3) =14/3 km ph |
|
| 32. |
The speed of the boat in the still water is 15 kmph and the rate of the current is 3 kmph. The distance travelled downstream in 12 mins is: a) 1.2 km b) 1.8 km c) 2.4 km d) 3.6 km |
|
Answer» Correct option: d) 3.6 km Explanation: Speed downstream = (15+3)kmph= 18 kmph distance travelled=18*12/60 =3.6 km |
|
| 33. |
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) 2:1 b) 3:1 c) 3:2 d) 4:3 |
|
Answer» Correct option: b) 3:1 Explanation: Let the man’s rate upstream be x kmph. Then his rate downstream= 2x kmph therefore (speed in still water):(speed of stream)= ((2x+x)/2):((2x-2)/2) =3x/2 : x/2 ==3:1 |
