A boy riding a bicycle with a speed of 4 m/s towards east direction, observes rain falling vertically downwards. If he increases his speed to 8 m/s, rain appears to meet him at 45° to the vertical. The speed of rain with respect to ground is-

a) 8 m/s
b) 4 m/s
c) 4√2 m/s
d) 2 m/s

Answer:(c) 4root2

Explanation:

rain falling vertically downwards means horizontal compartment is 4m/s..

And for 45° the vertical component will also be 4m/s.

So by using pythagoras theorem u will get resultant of 4root2


javedsaif0: yes..they will
javedsaif0: both are same..only they change the sequence of questions..
mahek4820: no all the questions are different it is not like aiats
mahek4820: so your test timings must also be 8:30 to 11:30
javedsaif0: no dude...my friends told me all questions are same
javedsaif0: hmm...r8 timing
mahek4820: you gave the last 2 tests
javedsaif0: only one test was conducted..on 22 march
javedsaif0: and i missed a test of today
mahek4820: we had another test on 23rd it had the same syllabus

Answer:

4√2 m/s

Explanation:

The horizontal component of the rain equals to the speed of the boy in the horizontal direction.

Velocity of rain in x direction is

V(rain-x dir) - V (boy) = V (rain wrt boy)

4 - 8 = -4 m/s

V (rain wrt boy) = 4 m/s in west

x component of rain is equal to the y component of rain.

Angle here is 45°

hence ground speed of rain will be 4√2 m/s.
