AI Generated Solution

To solve the problem, we need to analyze the motion of the rain and the woman on the bicycle. Let's break down the solution step by step. ### Step 1: Understand the velocities involved - The rain is falling vertically downwards with a speed of \( v_r = 10\sqrt{3} \, \text{m/s} \). - The woman is riding a bicycle with a speed of \( v_w = 10 \, \text{m/s} \) from east to west. ### Step 2: Set up the coordinate system - Let's consider the downward direction (where the rain is falling) as the negative y-direction. ...
