$A$ man rows to a place $48 \, km$ away and comes back in $14 \, hours$. He finds that he can row $4 \, km$ with the stream in the same time as $3 \, km$ against the stream. The rate of the stream is:

  • A
    $1 \, km/hr$
  • B
    $1.5 \, km/hr$
  • C
    $2 \, km/hr$
  • D

$A$ motor-boat can travel at $10 \, km/h$ in still water. It travelled $91 \, km$ downstream in a river and then returned to the same place,taking altogether $20 \, hours$. Find the rate of flow of the river (in $km/h$).

$A$ man takes twice as long to row a distance against the stream as to row the same distance in favour of the stream. The ratio of the speed of the boat (in still water) and the stream is:

Aditya can row with the stream at $10 \text{ km/h}$ and against the stream at $6 \text{ km/h}$. His speed in still water is .......... $\text{km/h}$.

$P$,$Q$,and $R$ are three towns on a river that flows uniformly. $Q$ is equidistant from $P$ and $R$. $I$ row from $P$ to $Q$ and back in $10$ $hours$,and $I$ can row downstream from $P$ to $R$ in $4$ $hours$. Compare the speed of my boat in still water with that of the river.
