Two boats $A$ and $B$ start towards each other from two places,$108 \text{ km}$ apart. The speeds of boats $A$ and $B$ in still water are $12 \text{ km/h}$ and $15 \text{ km/h}$,respectively. If $A$ proceeds down the stream and $B$ proceeds up the stream,they will meet after .......... $\text{h}$.

$A$ man can row $20 \text{ km/h}$ in still water and the speed of the stream is $5 \text{ m/s}$. The ratio of the speed of the man to the speed of the current is:

What time will be taken by a boat to cover a distance of $128\, km$ along the stream,if the speed of a boat in still water is $24\, km/h$ and the speed of the stream is $8\, km/h$? (in $h$)

$A$ man can swim in still water at $9.6 \text{ km/hr}$,but takes twice as long to swim upstream as he does downstream. The speed of the stream is ......... $\text{km/hr}$.
