Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Speed downstream = $\frac{48}{20}$ $=2.4$

Speed upstream= $\frac{48}{24}$ = 2 km/hr

Therefore, Speed of boat in still water= $\frac{1}{2} (2.4+2)=\frac{4.4}{2}$

= 2.2km (our final answer)

In case of hitting a wall the how the force applied by us on the wall will make the wall exert and equal and oppposite force? FOrce is product of mass and acceleration but the acceleration of the wall is zero. So the force is also zero. THat means Newton's third law is failing?? Can anyone explain this??
