#1. A motor boat covers a certain distance downstream in a river in 3 hours. It covers the same distance upstream in 3 hours and a half. If the speed of water is 1.5 km/h, then the speed of the boat in still water is :
#2. A boat goes 20 km downstream in one hour and the same distance upstream in two hours. The speed of the boat in still water is :
#3. A boat goes 12 km downstream and comes back to the starting point in 3 hours. If the speed of the current is 3 km/hr, then the speed (in km/hr) of the boat in still water is :
#4. A boat goes 6 km an hour in still water, but takes thrice as much time in going the same distance against the current. The speed of the current (in km/hour) is :
#5. A boat moves downstream at the rate of 1 km in \(7\frac1 2\) minutes and upstream at the rate of 5 km an hour. What is the speed of the boat in the still water?
#6. A man rows 750 m in 600 seconds against the stream and returns in \(7\frac1 2\) minutes. Its rowing speed in still water is (in km/hr).
#7. A boat takes half time in moving a certain distance downstream than upstream. The ratio of the speed of the boat in still water and that of the current is :
#8. A person can row a distance of one km upstream in ten minutes and downstream in four minutes. What is the speed of the stream?
#9. A man rows down a river 15 km in 3 hours with the stream and returns in \(7\frac1 2\) hours. The rate at which he swims 26 km downstream is :
#10. If a boat goes 100 km downstream in 10 hours and 75 km upstream in 15 hours, then the speed of the stream is :
#11. A person can row \(7\frac12\) km an hour in still water and he finds that it takes him twice as long to row up as to row down the river. The speed of the stream is :
#12. The speed of a boat is 5 km per hour in still water and the speed of the stream is 3 km per hour. If the boat takes 3 hours to go to a place and come back, then the distance of the place is :
#13. Two boats A and B start towards each other from two places, which is 108 km apart. Speed of the boat A and B in still water are 12 km/hr and 15 km/hr respectively. If A proceeds down and B up the stream, they will meet after how many hours?
#14. A man goes downstream with a boat to some destination and returns upstream to his original place in 5 hours. If the speed of the boat in still water and the stream are 10 km/hr and 4 km/hr respectively, then the distance of the destination from the starting place is :
#15. A man can row at 5 kmph in still water. If the velocity of current is 1 kmph and it takes him 1 hour to row to a place and come back, then how far is the place?
