Q
Q: A boat is moving upstream at 10 km/h in a river that flows downstream at 5 km/h. What is the speed of the boat relative to the ground?
Solution:
Speed of boat relative to ground = Speed of boat - Speed of river = 10 km/h - 5 km/h = 5 km/h.
Steps: 5
Show Steps
Step 1: Identify the speed of the boat moving upstream, which is 10 km/h.
Step 2: Identify the speed of the river flowing downstream, which is 5 km/h.
Step 3: To find the speed of the boat relative to the ground, subtract the speed of the river from the speed of the boat.
Step 4: Perform the calculation: 10 km/h (boat) - 5 km/h (river) = 5 km/h.
Step 5: The result, 5 km/h, is the speed of the boat relative to the ground.
