Question

1. A boatman rows to a place 48 km distant and back in 14 hours; he finds that he can rous 4 km with the stream in the same time as 3 km against the stream; find the rate of the stream.

a. 1 km/hr.

b. 3 km/hr

c. 2 km/hr

d. 4 km/hr

 

2. The electric power which a transmission line can transmit is proportional to the product of its design voltage and current capacity, and inversely to the transmission distance. A 115 kilovolt line rated at 1000 amperes can transit 150 Megawatts over 150 km. How much power, in Megawatts, can a 230 kilovolt line rated at 1500 amperes transit over 100 km?

a. 785

b. 485

c. 675

d. 595
