The speed at which a man can row a boat in still water is 15 kmph. If he rows downstream, where the speed of current is 3 kmph, what time will he take to cover 60 metres?

  • A.10 seconds
  • B.15 seconds
  • C.20 seconds
  • D.12 seconds

Answer: D

Speed of the boat downstream = 15 + 3 = 18 kmph

= 18 * 5/18 = 5 m/s

Hence time taken to cover 60 m = 60/5 = 12 seconds.
