Answer:

121km/h

Explanation:

Let speed of boat=xkm/h

Speed of water flow=33 km/h

Speed upstream=(x-33)km/h

Speed downstream=(x+33)km/h

Time=44 hrs

Time =77 hrs

We have to find the speed of boat.

Distance=Speed\times time

Using the formula

Upstream distance=Downstream distance

(x-33)\times 77=(x+33)\times 44

77x-2541=44x+1452

77x-44x=1452+2541

33x=3993

x=\frac{3993}{33}=121

Hence, the speed of boat=121km/h

What is the instantaneous speed of the object after the five seconds?
OverLord2011 [107]

Answer:

12.5 m/s

Explanation:

In a acceleration time graph the area under the curve gives the change in velocity of the object. Here object starts at rest and therefore initial velocity is 0. After 5 seconds acceleration is 5m/s2.

change in velocity=area under the curve

change in velocity= 0.5*acceleration* change in time

v-0=0.5*5*5

v=12.5 m/s
