To solve the problem step-by-step, we will analyze the situation involving the stationary observer and the moving observer in the context of the rain's velocity. ### Step 1: Understand the Given Information - A stationary man observes rain striking him at an angle of \(60^\circ\) to the horizontal. - When the man moves with a velocity of \(25 \, \text{m/s}\), the rain appears to strike him at an angle of \(30^\circ\) to the horizontal. ### Step 2: Set Up the Velocity Components Let \(v_r\) be the velocity of the rain drops. We can break this velocity into horizontal and vertical components: ...
