Comprehension: Rain and man
By the term velocity of rain, we mean velocity with which raindrops fall relative to the ground.
In absence of wind, raindrops fall vertically and in presence of wind raindrops fall obliquely.
Moreover raindrops acquire a constant terminal velocity due to air resistance very quickly as
they fall toward the earth.
A moving man relative to himself observes an altered velocity of raindrops, which is known as
velocity of rain relative to the man. It is given by the following equation.
  
v rm= v r − v m
A standstill man relative to himself observes rain falling with velocity, which is equal to
velocity of the raindrops relative to the ground.
To protect himself a man should hold his umbrella against velocity of raindrops relative to
himself as shown in the following figure.

When you are standstill holding a flag, the flag flutters in the direction of wind. When you start

(i) Find the distance along the bottom of the box between the point of projection P and the
point Q where the particle lands. (Assume that the particle does not hit any other surface of
the box. Neglect air resistance).
(ii) If the horizontal displacement of the particle as seen by an observer on the ground is zero,
find the speed of the box with respect to the ground at the instant when the particle was
projected.

EXERCISE (J)
1. A train is moving along a straight line with a constant acceleration ‘a’. A boy standing in the
train throws a ball forward with a speed of 10 m/s, at an angle of 60° to the horizontal. The boy
has to move forward by 1.15 m inside the train to catch the ball back at the initial height. The
acceleration of the train, in m/s2, is [IIT JEE 2011]

2. Airplanes A and B are flying with constant velocity in the same vertical plane at angles 30° and
60° with respect to the horizontal respectively as shown in the figure. The speed of A is
100 3 ms −1 . At time t = 0s, an observer in A finds B at a distance of 500 m. This observer
sees B moving with a constant velocity perpendicular to the line of motion of A. If at t = t0, A
just escapes being hit by B, t0 in seconds is [IIT JEE -2014]

3. A rocket is moving in a gravity free space with a constant acceleration of 2 ms–2 along + x
direction (see figure). The length of a chamber inside the rocket is 4 m. A ball is thrown from
the left end of the chamber in + x direction with a speed of 0.3 ms–1 relative to the rocket. At the
same time, another ball is thrown in –x direction with a speed of 0.2 ms–1 from its right end
relative to the rocket. The time in seconds when the two balls hit each other is [IIT JEE-2014 ]
