$A$ man can swim at the rate of $4\, km/h$ in still water. If the speed of the water is $2\, km/h$,then the time taken by him to swim $10\, km$ upstream is.........$h$.

$A$ man can row $6 \, km/h$ in still water. If the speed of the current is $2 \, km/h$,it takes $3 \, h$ more in upstream than in the downstream for the same distance. The distance is......$km$.

$A$ man can row at the rate of $4 \text{ km/hr}$ in still water. If the time taken to row a certain distance upstream is $3$ times as much as to row the same distance downstream,find the speed of the current in $\text{km/hr}$.
