Boats and Streams
While planning their outing,abhishek understood that their boat could travel with a speed of 12kmph in still water.The group decided to travel 24 minutes downstream.Aarti had prior experience in that route and mentioned that the speed of stream was 4kmph.How many kms will the group travel downstream?
a)6.4 b)3.2 c)4 d)4.8
Read Solution (Total 4)
-
- speed of boat in downstream=12+4=16km/h
ANS:=
distance=16*24/60=6.4km
- 9 years agoHelpfull: Yes(9) No(0)
- Speed of boat in Downstream=speed of boat in still water+speed of stream
- 8 years agoHelpfull: Yes(1) No(0)
- speed of boat travelling downstream=speed of boat in still water+speed of stream
a=12+4
a=16kmph
a=16*5/18mps
a=40/9mps
kms group will travel downstream=a*24*60m
= 6400m=6.4km - 8 years agoHelpfull: Yes(1) No(0)
- Downstream =speed on still water-stream speed
So downstream =8
Distance=(24/60)*8=3.2km - 6 years agoHelpfull: Yes(0) No(0)
