Alvin paddled for 44 hours with a 33-km/h current to reach a campsite. The return trip against the same current took 77 hours.

The brightness of the lamp is proportional to the current flowing through the lamp: the larger the current, the brighter the lamp.
The current flowing through the lamp is given by Ohm's law:
where
V is the potential difference across the lamp, which is equal to the emf of the battery, and R is the resistance of the lamp.
The problem says that the battery is replaced with one with lower emf. Looking at the formula, this means that V decreases: if we want to keep the same brightness, we need to keep I constant, therefore we need to decrease R, the resistance of the lamp.
The angular velocity of the wheel at the bottom of the incline is 4.429 rad/sec
The angular velocity (ω) of an object is the rate at which the object's angle position is changing in relation to time.
For a wheel attached to an incline angle, the angular velocity can be computed by considering the conservation of energy theorem.
As such the total kinetic energy (K.E) and rotational kinetic energy (R.K.E) at a point is equal to the total potential energy (P.E) at the other point.
i.e.
P.E = K.E + R.K.E
Therefore, we can conclude that the angular velocity of the wheel at the bottom of the incline is 4.429 rad/sec
