Q. A boat takes 10 hours to go 40 km upstream and 8 hours to return downstream. What is the speed of the stream?
A.
1 km/h
B.
2 km/h
C.
3 km/h
D.
4 km/h
Solution
Speed upstream = 40 km / 10 h = 4 km/h. Speed downstream = 40 km / 8 h = 5 km/h. Let speed of boat = x, then x - s = 4 and x + s = 5. Solving gives s = 1 km/h.
Q. A boat travels 15 km upstream and 15 km downstream in a total time of 3 hours. If the speed of the stream is 3 km/h, what is the speed of the boat in still water?
A.
9 km/h
B.
10 km/h
C.
12 km/h
D.
15 km/h
Solution
Let speed of boat = x km/h. Time upstream = 15 / (x - 3) and downstream = 15 / (x + 3). Total time = 15/(x-3) + 15/(x+3) = 3. Solving gives x = 9 km/h.
Q. A boat travels 20 km upstream and 30 km downstream in a total time of 5 hours. If the speed of the stream is 2 km/h, what is the speed of the boat in still water?
A.
8 km/h
B.
10 km/h
C.
12 km/h
D.
14 km/h
Solution
Let speed of boat = x km/h. Time upstream = 20 / (x - 2) and time downstream = 30 / (x + 2). Thus, (20 / (x - 2)) + (30 / (x + 2)) = 5. Solving gives x = 12 km/h.
Q. A boat travels 30 km downstream and returns upstream in a total time of 5 hours. If the speed of the stream is 2 km/h, what is the speed of the boat in still water?
A.
8 km/h
B.
10 km/h
C.
12 km/h
D.
14 km/h
Solution
Let speed of boat = x km/h. Time downstream = 30/(x+2) and upstream = 30/(x-2). Total time = 30/(x+2) + 30/(x-2) = 5. Solving gives x = 10 km/h.
Q. A boat travels 40 km downstream and 30 km upstream in a total time of 6 hours. If the speed of the stream is 4 km/h, what is the speed of the boat in still water?
A.
10 km/h
B.
12 km/h
C.
14 km/h
D.
16 km/h
Solution
Let speed of boat = x km/h. Time downstream = 40 / (x + 4) and time upstream = 30 / (x - 4). Thus, (40 / (x + 4)) + (30 / (x - 4)) = 6. Solving gives x = 14 km/h.
Q. A boat travels 50 km upstream and 70 km downstream in a total time of 10 hours. If the speed of the boat in still water is 15 km/h, what is the speed of the current?
A.
2 km/h
B.
3 km/h
C.
4 km/h
D.
5 km/h
Solution
Let the speed of current be x km/h. Time upstream = 50/(15-x) and time downstream = 70/(15+x). Setting up the equation: 50/(15-x) + 70/(15+x) = 10.
