Kick the bucket

In a potato race, a bucket is placed at the starting point, which is 5 m from the first potato, and the other potatoes are placed 3 m apart in a straight line. There are ten potatoes in the line (see Figure).A competitor starts from the bucket, picks up the nearest potato, runs back with it, drops it in the bucket, runs back to pick up the next potato, runs to the bucket to drop it in, and she continues in the same way until all the potatoes are in the bucket. What is the total distance the competitor has to run?[Hint : To pick up the first potato and the second potato, the total distance (in metres) rim by a competitor is 2 x 5 + 2 x (5 + 3)]

To find the speed of a river's current, boatman decides to carry out the following experiment. He drops a wooden bucket into the water and himself sets off downstream, rowing along the flow of river. After 40 min, he reaches a point A, 1km from his starting-point and turns back. After travelling some distance upstream, he picks up the bucket, turns round again and, rowing downstram once more, reaches A for the second time 24 min later (after picking the bucket). Assuming that the speeds of both current and boat (w.r.t. river) are constant, and also that no time is wasted on turning round. What is the speed of the current?
