4 m/s. A river current has a velocity of 5 km/h relative to the shore, and a boat moves in the same direction as the current at 5 km/h relative to the river. How can the velocity of the boat relative to the shore be calculated?
1 In contrast, velocities of streamflow generally are measured in feet per second. 2  A velocity of 1 foot per second equals about 16 miles per day. 3  The low velocities of ground-water flow can have important implications, particularly in relation to the movement of contaminants. A velocity of 1 foot per day or greater is a high rate of movement for ground water, and ground-water velocities can be as low as 1 foot per year or 1 foot per decade.
