What is relative velocity ? Explain how a man can hold his umbrella while walking on ground in a rain.

Rain is falling vertically with a speed of 30 ms^(-1) . A woman rides a bicycle with a speed of 10 ms^(-1) in the north to south direction. What is the relative velocity of rain with respect to the woman ? What is the direction in which she should hold her umbrella to protect herself from the rain ?

A man waves his arms, while walking. This is due:

Rain is falling with a speed of 4nVs inadirection making an angle of 30^(@) with vertical towards south. What should be the magnitude & direction of velocity of cyclist to hold his umbrella exactly vertical, so that rain does not wet him:

A man walking on a road with a velocity of 5 km per hour encounters rain falling vertically with a velocity of 25 km per hour. At what angle should he holds his umbrella in order to protect himself form the rain?

Why does a man hold his umbrella slightly inclined to the vertical while walking through the rain?

By the term velocity of rain, we mean velocity with which raindrops fall relative to the ground. In absence of wind, raindrops fall vertically and in presence of wind raindrops fall obliqucly. Moreover raindrops acquire a constant terminal velocity due air resistance very quickly as they fall toward the carth. A moving man relative to himself observes an altered velocity of raindrops. Which is known as velocity of rain relative to the man. It is given by the following equation. vec(v)_(rm)=vec(v)_(r)-vec(v)_(m) A standstill man relative to himself observes rain falling with velocity, which is equal to velocity of the raindrops relative to the ground. To protect himself a man should his umbrella against velocity of raindrops relative to himself as shown in the following figure. Rain is falling vertically with velocity 80 cm/s. (a) How should you hold your umbrella ? (b) You start walking towards the east with velocity 60 cm/s. How should you hold umbrella ? (c) You are walking towards the west with velocity 60 cm/s. How should you hold your umbrella ? (d) You are walking towards the north with velocity 60 cm/s. How should you hold your umbrella? (e) You are walking towards the south with velocity 80 cm/s. How should you hold your umbrella ?

When you are standstill in rain, you have to hold umbrella vertically to protect yourself. (a) When you walk with velocity 90 cm/s, you have to hold your umbrella at 53^(@) above the horizontal. What is velocity of the raindrops relative to the ground and relative to you ? (b) If you walk with speed 160 cm/s, how should you hold your umbrella ?
