A wedge is placed on a smooth horizontal...

A wedge is placed on a smooth horizontal plain and a rat runs on its sloping side. The velocity of the wedge is `v=4ms^(-1)` towards the right. What should be the velocity of the rat with respect to the wedge `(u)`, so that the rat appears to ,move in the vertical direction to an observer stading on the ground?
