$A$ river is flowing with a steady speed of $4\, km/h$. One rows his boat downstream in the river and then returns by rowing upstream in the same river. When he returns to the starting point,the total distance covered by him is $42\, km$. If the return journey takes $2\, h$ more than his outward journey,then the speed of his rowing in still water must be (in $km/h$)

$A$ man can row $30 \text{ km}$ downstream and return in a total of $8 \text{ h}$. If the speed of the boat in still water is $4$ times the speed of the current,then the speed of the current is ....... $\text{km/h}$.

The ratio of the speed of a motorboat to the speed of the water current is $36: 5$. The boat travels along with the current in $5\, h\, 10\, min$. How long will it take to return?
