Answers:

1. Answer b

Let us take speed of current and speed of boat be x and y

Given,

Upstream speed = 40/5=8 km/hr

Downstream speed = 40/2.5=16 km/hr

Speed of boat = (16+8)/2=12 km/hr

Speed of current = (16-8)/2=4 km/hr

2. Answer b

Let us take speed of boat in still water be x km/hr

Given,

120/(x+10)=1/3*(120/(x-10))

3x-30=x+10

2x=40=>x=20 km/hr

3. Answer d

Given,

160/2x+200/x=14

560/2x=14

X=20 km/hr

Required number of hours = 240/40=6 hrs

4. Answer a

On Tuesday:

80/ (15+x) = ½*80/ (15-x)

30-15=3x=>15=3x

=>x=15/3 =5 km/hr

Required time = 120/20+120/10=18 hrs

5. Answer e

Given,

Time taken to travel downstream

80/16=5 hrs

48/ (11-5) =48/6=8 km/hr

Speed of boat = (16+8)/2=24/2=12 km/hr

Speed of stream = (16-8)/2=8/2=4 km/hr

Required ratio = 12:4=3:1

6. Answer d

Given,

x/20 + (x+60)/4=21

x+5x+300=420

6x=120=>x=20 km

Required time = (4*20)/20=4 hrs

7. Answer a

Let us take speed of stream be x km

Given,

8 (50+x)*9/16=18*(50-x)

400+8x=32*50-32x

=>40x=120=>x=30 m/s

Required distance = 8 (50+30) +18*(50-30)

=>640+360=1000 m

8. Answer c

Let us take speed of boat A as x and speed of boat B as y

120/ ((x+10) +(y-10)) =1 ½

120/(x+y) =3/2

=>x+y=80

9. Answer d

Let us take distance as y

Given,

Y/(x+10)=0.6*(y/(x-10))

1/(x+10) =0.6*(1/(x-10))

X-10=0.6x+6

0.4x=16=>x=40 km/hr

10. Answer a

Let Speed of boat in still water be ‘y’

3*(y+10) =5*(y-10)

3y+30=5y-50

=>2y=80=>y=40

Required distance = 3*50=150 km

Required time = 210/50+210/30=4 hr 12 min+7hr=11 hrs 12 min
