A boat moves along the flow of river between two fixed points A and B. it takes `t_(1)` time when going downstream and takes `t_(2)` time when going upstream between these two points. What time it will take in still water to cover the distance equal to AB.

Call

`t_(1)=(AB)/(v_(b)+v_(R)) . T_(2)=(AB)/(v_(b)-v_(R))` or `v_(b)+v_(R)=(AB)/(t_(1))`
and `v_(b)-v_(R)=(AB)/(t_(2))rArr 2v_(b)=(AB)/(t_(1)+(AB)/(t_(2)))=AB((t_(1)+t_(2))/(t_(1)t_(2)))`
or `((2t_(1)t_(2))/(t_(1)+t_(2)))=(AB)/(v_(b))`= time taken by the boat to cover AB

Sometimes, the river starts erosion upstream. This happens when the head stream gets a lot of water in the early stages of river’s flow. 

Correct option is  (b) Headward erosion

A river is flowing wih velocity `2 m//s`. A boat is moving downstream. Velocity of boat in still water is `3 m//s`. A person standing on boat throws a

Correct Answer - B At top most point `v_(b, m_(b)) = 0 m//s` `v_(b,r) = 5 - 2 = 3 m//s` `v_(b,g) = 5 ms//s`
