Boaters - boat
In summer Marek and Lukáš go on trips in a motor boat. On calm water the boat moves at a speed of v0 = 16 km/h. Both boys set out on a voyage along a river, the water in it relative to the bank moves at a speed of v1 = 4.0 km/h. They set off from the boathouse upstream. After two hours they reached a waterfall, where they turned around and sailed back.
a) What speed relative to the bank did the boat move at during the voyage against the current
b) What speed relative to the bank did the boat move at during the voyage with the current
c) What is the distance of the waterfall from the boathouse
d) How long did Marek's and Lukáš's journey from the waterfall to the boathouse take

- Relative motion
The boat moves along the river at a speed of v1 = 5 km/h and upstream v2 = 2 km/h What is the current P's and boat L's speed relative to the water? - Boat water speed
The water in the river has a speed of 4.8 km/h relative to the bank. A boat in still water has a speed of 12.6 km/h. a) What is the boat's speed relative to the shore if it is sailing downstream and upstream of the river? b) What path will the boat travel - Distance of the jetty
Three friends are sitting on a jetty which is exactly in the middle of a flowing river. The first friend sets off against the current of the river at a speed of 0.4 m/s, the second friend sets off along the current of the river at a speed of 0.2 m/s, the - The cruise ship
The cruise ship speeds 12 km/h at a calm surface. When we sailed 45 km along the river and 45 km back, it took us exactly 8 hours. Which (constant) speed of flow of the river? - Perpendicular direction
A speedboat moves relative to the water at a constant speed of 13 m/s. The speed of the water current in the river is 5 m/s a) At what angle concerning the water current must the boat sail to keep moving perpendicular to the banks of the river? b) At what - The river The river flows at 4 km/h. A boat can go downstream thrice as fast as upstream. Find the speed of the boat in still water.
- Water current speed.
Two cities along the river are 100 km apart. The powerboat downstream runs for 4 hours, upstream for 10 hours. Determines the river's current speed.
