Rain drops are felling with velocity (2hat i- 3 hatj) m/s. What should be the velocity of man so rain drops hit him with speed 5 m/s.

Raindrops are falling with velocity 10 sqrt2 m/s making and angle 45^(@) with the vertical. The drops appear to be falling vertically to a man running with constant velocity . The velocity of rain drops change such that the rain drops now appear to be falling vertically with sqrt3 times the velcoity it appeared earlier to the same person running with same velocity . After the velocity of rain drops change the magnitude of velocity of raindrops with respect to ground is
