Calculate swimmer's speed in still water and velocity of stream. Understand the possibility of zero velocity with non-zero acceleration.
Swimmer's speed in still water can be calculated using the formula:
Velocity of swimmer in still water = (Speed downstream + Speed upstream) / 2
Velocity of stream can be found by calculating half the difference between downstream and upstream speeds. In this case, (20 km/hr - 8 km/hr) / 2 = 6 km/hr.
Zero velocity with non-zero acceleration is possible. An example is when an object is thrown upwards, momentarily stops at its highest point (zero velocity), and then accelerates downwards due to gravity.
