velocity question help?
A car is going at 50 km/h due east. Water is falling vertically with respect to the earth. Looking at the side windows the water creates a 60 degree angle with the vertical. What is the velocity of the water with respect to
a) car
b) earth.
I don't know how to solve, so I don't know any relevant equations.
Did not know how to approach. Could someone please clear this up for me. These type of "with respect to" questions are really confusing for me.
