Homework Statement
A glass wind screen whose inclination with the vertical can be changed, is mounted on a cart as shown in figure. The cart moves uniformly along the horizontal part with a speed = 6 m/s. At what max. angle [tex]\ \theta[/tex] to the vertical can the wind screen be placed so that the rain drops falling vertically downwards with velocity = 2m/s DO NOT enter the cart ?
