$A$ glass windscreen,whose inclination with the vertical can be changed,is mounted on a car. The car moves horizontally with a speed of $2\,m/s$. At what angle $\alpha$ with the vertical should the windscreen be placed so that the rain drops falling vertically downwards with velocity $6\,m/s$ strike the windscreen perpendicularly?

$A$ boy runs on a horizontal road with a speed of $4 \ m \ s^{-1}$ while it is raining. He sees that the rain is making an angle $\theta$ with the vertical while running from west to east. However, when he runs from east to west, the angle is $\alpha$. The rain is pouring down at an angle $45^{\circ}$ with the vertical and at a speed of $8 \ m \ s^{-1}$ as shown in the figure. The ratio $\frac{\tan \theta}{\tan \alpha}$ is,

$A$ girl riding a bicycle with a speed of $5 \, m/s$ towards the north direction observes rain falling vertically down. If she increases her speed to $10 \, m/s$,the rain appears to meet her at $45^o$ to the vertical. What is the speed of the rain? In what direction does the rain fall as observed by a ground-based observer?

Rain is falling vertically with a speed of $12 \ ms^{-1}$. $A$ woman rides a bicycle with a speed of $12 \ ms^{-1}$ in the east to west direction. What is the direction in which she should hold her umbrella?

$A$ boat moves with a speed of $5 \, km/h$ relative to water in a river flowing with a speed of $3 \, km/h$ and having a width of $1 \, km$. The minimum time taken for a round trip is ......... $min$.

$A$ swimmer wants to cross a river from point $A$ to point $B$. Line $AB$ makes an angle of $30^{\circ}$ with the flow of the river. The magnitude of the velocity of the swimmer is the same as that of the river. The angle $\theta$ with the line $AB$ should be in degrees,so that the swimmer reaches point $B$.
