Question
A man can go on a motor boat with a speed of 15 km/hour
in still water, he goes to a certain distance upstream and come back to the starting point in a river which flows at a speed of 5km/hour. Find the average speed of motor boat for total journey?Solution
Let, the speed of boat be u km/hour and speed of current be v km/hour  Average speed = (u2 - v2)/u  = (225-25)/15 = 13*1/3 km/hour  Alternate Method :-  Average speed = (Total distance covered)/(total time taken) = (2×60)/9 =40/3 km/hour
 Average speed = (Total distance covered)/(total time taken) = (2×60)/9 =40/3 km/hour
