A person moves due east at speed 6m/s and feels the wind is blowing to south at speed 6 m/s.
(a) Find actual velocity of wind blow.
(b) If person doubles his velocity then find the relative velocity of wind blow w.r.t. man.

To solve the problem step by step, we can break it down into two parts as follows: ### Part (a): Find the actual velocity of the wind. 1. **Identify the velocities**: - The person is moving due east with a velocity \( V_m = 6 \, \text{m/s} \). - The person feels the wind blowing to the south with a velocity \( V_{w/m} = 6 \, \text{m/s} \) (relative to the person). ...

An observer is travelling in east with a velocity of 2 m/s and observes that wind is blowing in north with a velocity of 2m/s. If observer doubles his velocity then find out the velocity of wind appears to observer ?

Assertion: An observer is moving due east and wind appears him to blow from north. Then the actual direction of air blow must be towards south-east Reason: vecV_(R)=vecV_(A)-vecV_(M) where vecV_(R) is the relative velocity of wind w.r.t. man. vecV_(A)= actual velocity of wind (w.r.t. ground) and vecV_(M)= velocity of man w.r.t. ground.
