I solved came with these answers
From these observations, determine the speed of the raindrops relative to the ground.
V= 68.7 m/s
From these observations, determine the angle of the raindrops relative to the ground.
Angle= 21.3
Got them right
A swimmer wants to cross a river, from point A to point B, as shown in the figure. The distance d_1 (from A to C) is 200 m, the distance d_2 (from C to B) is 150 m, and the speed v_r of the current in the river is 5 {km/hour}. Suppose that the swimmer's velocity relative to the water makes an...
While driving north at 25 m/s during a rainstorm you notice that the rain makes an angle of 38 degree with the vertical. While driving back home moments later at the same speed but in the opposite direction, you see that the rain is falling straight down.
From these observations, determine...
