Two particles having position vectors $r_1 = (3 \hat{i} + 5 \hat{j}) \text{ m}$ and $r_2 = (-5 \hat{i} - 3 \hat{j}) \text{ m}$ are moving with velocities $v_1 = (4 \hat{i} + 3 \hat{j}) \text{ m/s}$ and $v_2 = (a \hat{i} + 7 \hat{j}) \text{ m/s}$. If they collide after $2 \text{ s}$,then the value of $a$ is:

  • A
    $2$
  • B
    $4$
  • C
    $6$
  • D
    $8$

$A$ man walking briskly in rain with speed $v$ must slant his umbrella forward making an angle $\theta$ with the vertical. $A$ student derives the following relation between $\theta$ and $v: \tan \theta = v$ and checks that the relation has a correct limit: as $v \rightarrow 0, \theta \rightarrow 0,$ as expected. (We are assuming there is no strong wind and that the rain falls vertically for a stationary man). Do you think this relation can be correct? If not,guess the correct relation.
