Physics · MOTION IN A PLANE
हिन्दीIn the velocity diagram shown for a rain-wind situation, rain falls vertically with speed \( v_r = 35\text{ m/s} \) and wind blows horizontally from east to west with speed \( v_w = 12\text{ m/s} \). What is the exact value of \( \tan\theta \), where \( \theta \) is the angle made with the vertical direction at which an umbrella must be held?
Correct answer · Option 4
\( \frac{12}{35} \)
Explanation
From the vector triangle, \( \tan\theta = \frac{v_w}{v_r} = \frac{12}{35} \).
