explain rivet system of australia

Answer»

I'm guessing you asked about river system of Australia.

The Murray–Darling basin is a large geographical area in the interior of south-eastern Australia. Its name is derived from its two major rivers, the Murray River and the Darling River. The basin, which drains around one-seventh of the Australian land mass, is one of the most significant agricultural areas in Australia. It spans most of the states of New South Wales and Victoria, the Australian Capital Territory, and parts of the states of Queensland (lower third) and South Australia (south-eastern corner). The basin is 3,375 kilometres (2,097 mi) in length, with the Murray River being 2,508 km (1,558 mi) long. Most of the 1,061,469 km2 (409,835 sq mi) basin is flat, low-lying and far inland, and receives little direct rainfall. The many rivers it contains tend to be long and slow-flowing, and carry a volume of water that is large only by Australian standards.

by one boy alone t0 TII1.A boat goes 24 km upstream and 28 km downstream in 6 hrs. Iupstream and 21 km downstream in 6) hrs.Find the speed of theand also speed of threadth reduced easth ic increased and breadth reduced ea

Answer»

If speed of the boat be x and stream speed be y

from the given question,

24/(x-y) + 28/(x+y) = 630/(x-y) + 21/(x+y) = 6.5

Taking 1/(x-y) as X and 1/(x+y) as Y24X + 28Y = 630X + 21Y = 6.5

solving for X and Y==>X = 1/6 and Y = 1/14

so x-y = 6 and x+y = 14hencex = 10 kmph and y = 4kmph

Example 18 A boat goes 6 km/h in still water but it takesthrice as much time in going the same distance against thecurrent. The speed (in km/h) of current is

Answer»

18km/h , is that answer?

Speed of boat in still water, x = 6 km/h

Let speed of the stream = y km/h

Downstream speed =(6+y)km/h

Upstream speed =6−ykm/h

According to Question

3(Distance/6+y)=(Distance/6−y)=>3/6+y=1/6−y

6+y=18−3y

4y=12

y=3

∴Speed of stream = 3 km/h.

2 km/h. is it the ri8 ans ??

a boat goes 16 km up stream and 24 km down stream in 6 hours .also, it cover 12 km up stream and 36 km down stream in the same time. find the speed of the boat in still water and that of the stream.

Answer»

Let the speed of the boat in still water be X km/hr and the speed of the stream be Y km/hr.

Therefore,

Speed upstream = (X-Y) km/hr

And,

Speed downstream= (X+Y) km/hr.

Time taken to cover 16 km upstream =16/(X-Y) hrs.

Time Taken to cover 24 km downstream = 24/(X+Y) hrs

Total Time Taken to cover to both distance=6 hours.

Therefore,

16/X-Y + 24/X+Y = 6.…...(1)

Again,

Time Taken to cover 12 km upstream= 12/(X-Y) hrs

Time Taken to cover 36 km downstream = 36/(X+Y) hrs.

Total Time Taken to cover both Distance =6 hours.

Therefore,

12/X-Y + 36/X+Y = 6.........(2)

Putting 1/(X-Y) = U and 1/(X+Y) = V in equation (1) and (2). we get,

16U + 24V = 6 => 8U + 12V = 3......(3)

12U +36V = 6 => 2U + 6V = 1.......(4)

On multiplying (4) by 4 and subtracting (3) from it , we get,

12V =1

V = 1/12

Therefore,

1/X+Y = 1/12

X+Y = 12.......(5)

On multiplying (4) by 2 subtracting it from (3) we get,

4U = 1

U = 1/4

Therefore,

1/X-Y = U

1/X-Y = 1/4

X-Y = 4.....(6)

On adding (5) and (6) , we get,

2X= 16

X = 16/2 = 8

On subtracting (4) from (5) , we get,

2Y = 8

Y = 8/2 =4

Hence,

Speed of the boat in still water = 8 Km/ hr

And,

Speed of the stream = 4 km/hr.

29. The angle of elevation of a cloud from a point 60 mabove the surface of the water of a lake is 30 andthe angle of depression of its shadow in water oflake is 60°. Find the height of the cloud from thesurface of water.

Answer»

Let AO=HCD=OB=60mA'B=AB=(60+H)m

In triangke AOD,tan30'=AO/OD=H/OD

H=OD/√3OD=√3 H

Now, in triangle A'OD,tan60'=OA'/OD=(OB+BA')/OD√3=(60+60+H)/√3 H =(120+H)/√3 H=>120+H=3H 2H=120 H=60m

Thus, height of the cloud above the lake = AB+A'B =(60+60) = 120m

11. The sum of the digits of a two digit number is 12. If the number formed by reversing its digits is greaterthan the original number by 18, find the original number.

Answer»

Let unit place digit be x and ten place digit is (12 - x)

Then,Original Number = 10*(12 - x) + x

If digits are reversedThen number will be equal to10x + 12 - x

As per given condition10x + (12 - x) = 10*(12-x) + x + 18

9x + 12 = 120 - 9x + 18

18x = 126

x = 126/18 = 7

Therefore,Original Number = 120 - 9*7= 57
