Question

A swimmer's speed in the direction of flow
of flow of the river the swimmer's speed: Ifa
6 km h-2. Calculate the swimmer's speed in
EXAMPLE 2.30
of a river is 12 km h-. Against the direction Av
of
still water and the velocity of the river flov av
A​

Answer 1

Answer:

etx be the speed of the still water and c be the speed of the river.

Then

x+c=16

x−c=8

By solving these two equations we get

Swimmers speed in still water is =12  

hr

km

​  

 

Velocity of flow of river=4  

hr

km
