The correct Answer is:
To find the velocity of rain with respect to the man and the direction from which the rain appears to be coming, we can follow these steps: ### Step 1: Identify the given velocities - The velocity of rain \( \vec{V}_{\text{rain}} \) is given as: \[ \vec{V}_{\text{rain}} = -4\hat{i} + 8\hat{j} - 10\hat{k} \] - The velocity of the man \( \vec{V}_{\text{man}} \) is given as: \[ \vec{V}_{\text{man}} = 6\hat{i} + 8\hat{j} \] ### Step 2: Calculate the relative velocity of rain with respect to the man The velocity of rain with respect to the man \( \vec{V}_{\text{rain, man}} \) can be calculated using the formula: \[ \vec{V}_{\text{rain, man}} = \vec{V}_{\text{rain}} - \vec{V}_{\text{man}} \] Substituting the values: \[ \vec{V}_{\text{rain, man}} = (-4\hat{i} + 8\hat{j} - 10\hat{k}) - (6\hat{i} + 8\hat{j}) \] ### Step 3: Perform the vector subtraction Now, we perform the subtraction component-wise: - For the \( \hat{i} \) component: \[ -4 - 6 = -10 \] - For the \( \hat{j} \) component: \[ 8 - 8 = 0 \] - For the \( \hat{k} \) component: \[ -10 - 0 = -10 \] Thus, we get: \[ \vec{V}_{\text{rain, man}} = -10\hat{i} + 0\hat{j} - 10\hat{k} \] ### Step 4: Write the final expression for the relative velocity So, the velocity of rain with respect to the man is: \[ \vec{V}_{\text{rain, man}} = -10\hat{i} - 10\hat{k} \] ### Step 5: Determine the direction of the rain To find the direction from which the rain appears to be coming, we can analyze the components of the relative velocity vector: - The \( \hat{i} \) component is negative, indicating that the rain is coming from the right (in the negative \( \hat{i} \) direction). - The \( \hat{k} \) component is negative, indicating that the rain is coming from above (in the negative \( \hat{k} \) direction). ### Step 6: Calculate the angle of the rain's direction To find the angle of the rain's direction, we can use the tangent function: \[ \tan(\theta) = \frac{\text{opposite}}{\text{adjacent}} = \frac{10}{10} = 1 \] Thus, \[ \theta = \tan^{-1}(1) = 45^\circ \] ### Conclusion The rain appears to be coming at an angle of \( 45^\circ \) from the horizontal (the \( \hat{i} \) direction). ### Final Answer The velocity of rain with respect to the man is: \[ \vec{V}_{\text{rain, man}} = -10\hat{i} - 10\hat{k} \] And the direction from which the rain appears to be coming is at an angle of \( 45^\circ \) from the horizontal. ---

To find the velocity of rain with respect to the man and the direction from which the rain appears to be coming, we can follow these steps: ### Step 1: Identify the given velocities - The velocity of rain \( \vec{V}_{\text{rain}} \) is given as: \[ \vec{V}_{\text{rain}} = -4\hat{i} + 8\hat{j} - 10\hat{k} \] - The velocity of the man \( \vec{V}_{\text{man}} \) is given as: ...
