A boat sails downstream from point A to point B, which is 10 km away from 4, and then returns to A . If the actual speed of the boat (in still water) is 3 km/h, the trip from A to B takes 8 hours less than that from B to A . What must the actual speed of the boat for the trip from  A to B to take exactly 100 minutes?

Two trains pass each other on parallel lines. Each train is 100 metres long. When they are going in the same direction, the faster one takes 60 seconds to pass the other completely. If they are going in opposite directions they pass each other completely in 10 seconds. Find the speed of the slower train in km/h.
