Answer:
[tex]\theta = tan^{-1}\dfrac{v}{u}[/tex]
Explanation:
A car is moving in straight line with velocity v
raindrop is falling vertically downwards with velocity u
to find the angle at which rain drop is hitting the windshield
the driver will see the rainfall velocity relative to the moving car
∴ The apparent velocity will be
= [tex]\vec{u}-\vec{v}[/tex]
Rain will be falling on wind shield at an angle θ .
where [tex]\theta = tan^{-1}\dfrac{v}{u}[/tex]
