A boat moves through the water of a river at 8 m/s relative to the water, regardless of the boat's direction. If the water in theriver is flowing at 1.9 m/s, how long does it take the boat to makea round trip consisting of a 260 m displacement downstream followedby a 260 m

Respuesta :

Answer:

68.88 m/s

Explanation:

downstream speed = 8+1.9=9.9 m/s

upstream speed = 8-1.9= 6.1 m/s

Therefore, total time taken would be 260/9.9+260/6.1 = 26.26+42.62 =

68.88 m/s
