A person can row a boat at \(5 km / hr\) in still water. If the speed of water current in a river is \(1 km / hr\), and it takes him \(1\) hour to row to a place and come back, how far off is the place?
- A \(3 .6\) km
- B \(2.4\) km
- C \(2\) km
- D \(3.2\) km
Answer & Solution
Correct Answer
(B) \(2.4\) km
Step-by-step Solution
Detailed explanation
\(v_d = 5 + 1 = 6 \text{ km/hr}\) \(v_u = 5 - 1 = 4 \text{ km/hr}\) \(T = \frac{d}{v_d} + \frac{d}{v_u}\) \(1 = \frac{d}{6} + \frac{d}{4}\) \(1 = d \left( \frac{2+3}{12} \right)\) \(1 = d \left( \frac{5}{12} \right)\) \(d = \frac{12}{5} = 2.4 \text{ km}\)

The osmotic pressure is one of the four colligative properties which depends on the number of particles of solute in the solution, irrespective of their nature. The osmotic pressure is equal to the product of concentration, gas constant and temperature. It is the most commonly used property for the determination of the molar mass of biomolecules. In many situations, the molecules get dissociated or
associated when they are dissolved in a solvent, thereby changing the number of molecules in the solution. As a result, an abnormal molecular mass is obtained. The extent of dissociation or association is given by van't Hoff factor (i), which is the ratio of normal molar mass to abnormal molar mass. It is related with the degree of association or ionization. The introduction of van't Hoff factor in the osmotic pressure equation modifies the equation.
