  1. A man rows upstream 16 km and downstream 27 km talking 5 hours each time. What is the velocity of current ?
    1. 2 km/hr
    2. 2.1 km/hr
    3. 1.1 km/hr
    4. None of these
Correct Option: C

Man's rate upstream = 16/5 km/hr
Man's rate downstream = 27/5 km/hr

∴ Velocity of the current = (27/5 - 16/5)/2 km/hr = 1.1 km/hr
