Q:

A motorboat can go 10 miles downstream on a river in 20 min. It takes 30 min for this boat to go back at the same 10 miles. Find the speed of the current ?

A) 8 m/h B) 5 m/h
C) 7 m/h D) 6 m/h
 
Answer & Explanation Answer: B) 5 m/h

Explanation:

As the distance travelled is constant, the time taken is inversely proportional to speed.

Let 'u' be the speed of the current and 'v' be the speed of the boat.

Speed of the boat downstream = v + u & upstream = v - u

=> v+u/v-u = 30/20 => v/u = 5 => v = 5u

=> v + u = 6u = 10/20/60 miles/hr

=> 6u = 30 m/h

=> u = 5 m/h
