A man moving with a velocity of `5m//s` on a horizontal road observes that raindrops fall at an angle of `45^(@)` with the vertical. When he moves with a velocity of `16m//s` along an inclined plane, which is inclined at `30^(@)` with the horizontal , he observes raindrops falling vertically downward as shown in the figure. Find the actual velocity of the raindrops.

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
`8 sqrt ( 3i) - ( 8 sqrt( 3) - 5 ) hat(j)`
