A man standing on a road has to hold his umbrella at 30^0 with the vertical to keep the rain away. The throws the umbrella and starts running at 10 km/h. He finds that raindrops are hitting his head vertically. Find the speed of raindrops with respect to a. the road, b. the moving man.

A person (40 kg) is managing to be at rest between two verticle walls by pressing one wall A by hi hands and feet and the other wall B by his back figure. Assume that the friction coefficient between his body and the walls is 0.8 and that limiting friction acts at all the contacts. a. show that the person pushes the two walls with equal force. b. find the normal force exerted by either wall on the person Take g=10 m/s^2 .
