Raindrops are falling with a velocity 10 ✓ m/s making an angle of 45 ° with the vertical. The drops
appear to be falling vertically to a man running with constant velocity. The velocity of rain drops change
such that the rain drops now appear to be falling vertically with ./3 times the velocity it appeared earlier
to the same person running with same velocity.
7. The magnitude of velocity of man with respect to ground is

(A) 10 ✓ m/s (B) 5 m/s (C) 20 m/s (D) 10 m/s

8. After the velocity of rain drops change, the magnitude of velocity of raindrops with respect to ground is
(A) 20 m/s (B) 25 m/s (C) 10 m/s (D) 15 m/s

9. The angle (in degrees) between the initial and the final velocity vectors of the raindrops with respect to
the ground is

1. Airplanes A and B are flying with constant velocity in the same vertical plane at angles 30 ° and 60 ° with
respect to the horizontal respectively as shown in figure. The speed of A is 100 ./3 ms- 1. At time t = Os,
an observer in A finds B at a distance of 500m. This observer sees B moving with a constant velocity
perpendicular to the line of motion of A. If at t = to, A just escapes being hit by B, to in seconds is:
