$A$ man is running on a level road with a speed of $10 \ m/s$. He feels that the rain is falling vertically downward with a speed of $10 \sqrt{3} \ m/s$. If he runs in the opposite direction with the same speed,then the speed of the rain relative to him will be:

  • A
    $20 \ m/s$
  • B
    $10 \sqrt{3} \ m/s$
  • C
    $10 \sqrt{7} \ m/s$
  • D
    $\frac{10}{\sqrt{3}} \ m/s$

$A$ stationary man observes that the rain is falling vertically downward. When he starts running with a velocity of $12 \ km/h$,he observes that the rain is falling at an angle of $60^{\circ}$ with the vertical. The actual velocity of the rain is:

Explain this common observation clearly: If you look out of the window of a fast-moving train,the nearby trees,houses,etc.,seem to move rapidly in a direction opposite to the train's motion,but the distant objects (hilltops,the Moon,the stars,etc.) seem to be stationary. (In fact,since you are aware that you are moving,these distant objects seem to move with you).

To a person,going eastward in a car with a velocity of $25\, km/hr$,a train appears to move towards north with a velocity of $25\sqrt{3}\, km/hr$. The actual velocity of the train will be..........$km/hr$

$A$ person aiming to reach the exactly opposite point on the bank of a stream is swimming with a speed of $0.5\, m/s$ at an angle of $120^\circ$ with the direction of flow of water. The speed of water in the stream is..........$m/s$.

When a car is at rest,its driver sees rain drops falling on it vertically. When driving the car with speed $v$,he sees that rain drops are coming at an angle $60^{\circ}$ from the horizontal. On further increasing the speed of the car to $(1+\beta)v$,this angle changes to $45^{\circ}$. The value of $\beta$ is close to...
