What else can I help you with?
A boat moves at a speed of 15 kmh in still water. The river it is traveling in flows at a rate of 3 kmh downstream. What is the velocity of the boat if it travels downstream What is the velocity of th?
If the boat is moving downstream, you add the speed of the boat with the speed of the river flow. Therefore, the velocity of the boat downstream is 18 km/h. If the boat is moving upstream, you subtract the river flow speed from the boat's speed, so in this case, it would be 12 km/h.
What type of sail travels the furthest?
A downwind sail, such as a spinnaker or a genoa, typically travels the furthest because it is designed to catch wind from behind the boat and harness the wind's energy to propel the boat forward efficiently in downwind conditions.
What would happen to a boat that was moving upstream at the same speed as the current moving downstream?
If the boat is moving upstream at the same speed as the current moving downstream, the boat will appear to be stationary relative to an observer on the shore. This is because the boat's upstream motion is being cancelled out by the downstream motion of the current.
Are the forces balanced or unbalanced on a motorboat coasting at a constant speed?
The forces are balanced on a motorboat coasting at a constant speed. The forward force from the motor pushing the boat is equal and opposite to the resistive forces like air and water resistance acting on the boat, resulting in a net force of zero which keeps the boat moving at a constant speed.
If your speed is measured in 10 knots you are riding a?
boat or ship.
What is the speed of a boat that travels 10 miles in 30 minutes in miles per hour?
It would be 20 MPH.
What is the speed of a boat that travels 10 miles in 30 minutes?
Well, isn't that just a happy little question! If a boat travels 10 miles in 30 minutes, we can find its speed by dividing the distance by the time. So, the boat is traveling at a speed of 20 miles per hour. Just imagine all the lovely scenery the boat must be passing by at that gentle pace!
What is the average speed if thev boat travels 15 min?
The average speed is(4 x the number of nautical miles the boat traveled in that time) knots.
What is the average speed of a boat if it travels 5580 miles in 62 days?
5580+1/3
How long is 10 miles by boat if a boat averages 20 mph?
Time = Distance/Speed = 10 miles/20 miles per hour = 0.5 hours or 30 minutes.
A boat travels due east for a distance of 15 miles. It then travels due north for distace of 20 miles. How many miles is the boat from it's starting point?
25 miles.
A boat travels due east for a distance of 15 miles it then travels due north for a distance of 20 miles at which point it drops anchor how many miles is the boat from its stsring point?
5 miles
If a boat travels for 5 miles against a 4 mph current It took him 20 minutes longer to get there than it does to return How fast will the boat go on still water?
11 mph
A boat travels due east for a distance of 15 miles it then travels due north for a distance of 20 miles at which point it drops anchor How many miles is the boat from its starting point?
hm
A boat travels due East for a distance of 15miles it then travels due North for a distance of 20miles at which point it drops anchor how many miles is the boat from its statring point?
25 miles
How long does it take to cross 25 miles on boat?
The rate of crossing depends on the speed the boat is traveling, not on the distance it has to travel. 25 miles could probably be crossed in approximately forty-five minutes or less.
A motor boat can go 2 miles downstream on a river in 3 minutes it takes 15 minutes for the boat to go upstream the same 2 miles find the speed of the current?
Let boat speed = X and current speed = Y Downstream speed = boat speed plus current speed = X + Y Upstream speed = boat speed minus current speed = X -Y Downstream speed = 2 miles divided by 3 minutes = 2/3 miles per minute Upstream speed = 2 miles divided by 15 minutes = 2/15 miles per minute X + Y = 2/3 X - Y = 2/15 add equations 2X = 2/3 + 2/15 = 10/15 + 2/15 = 12/15 = 4/5 divide by 2 X = 4/10 = 2/5 use second equation and find Y as X -Y = 2/15 2/5 - Y = 2/15 6/15 - Y = 2/15 Y = 4/15 = current speed = 0.266 miles per minute
