Directions (1-5): Bar chart given below shows Downstream speed of five different boats in same river and time taken by these boats to cover same distance in upstream by each boat. Study the data carefully and answer the following questions.
Note: Distance travelled is same by all five boats and stream speed is same.
Q1. Boat A and boat E start from point P and Q respectively and move towards each other. If distance between P and Q is 240 km then find after how much time they will meet for second time?
(a) 30 hours
(b) 18 hours
(c) 20 hours
(d) Either 20 hours or 16 hours
(e) Either 30 hours or 18 hours
Q2. Time taken by boat B to cover 80 km in downstream is what percent more/less than time taken by boat C to cover 48 km in upstream.
(a) 66 ⅔%
(b) 33 ⅓%
(c) 566 ⅔%
(d) 533 ⅓%
(e) None of the given options
Q3. Speed of boat A in downstream is how much more/less than speed of boat D in upstream.
(a) 2 km/hr
(b) 10 km/hr
(c) 4 km/hr
(d) 8 km/hr
(e) 6 km/hr
Q4. Boat ‘C’ and boat ‘E’ starts moving in same direction in a circular river. If length of that circular river is 48 km, then after how much time they will meet second time.
(a) 12 hours
(b) 24 hours
(c) 36 hours
(d) 16 hours
(e) 32 hours
Q5. Find average of speed of boat A, B and D in still water?
(a) 7 km/hr
(b) 6 km/hr
(c) None of the given options
(d) 8 km/hr
(e) 9 km/hr
