A man standing on a road holds his umbrella at 30° with the vertical to keep the rain away. He throws the umbrella and starts running at 10 km/hr. He finds that raindrops are hitting his head vertically, the speed of raindrops with respect to the road will be:

(1) 10 km/hr

(2) 20 km/hr

(3) 30 km/hr

(4) 40 km/hr

A boat is moving with a velocity \(3\hat i + 4\hat j\) with respect to ground. The water in the river is moving with a velocity\(-3\hat i - 4 \hat j\) with respect to ground. The relative velocity of the boat with respect to water is: 
1. \(8\hat j\)
2. \(-6\hat i-8\hat j\)
3. \(6\hat i+8\hat j\)
4. \(5\sqrt{2}\)

A river is flowing from east to west at a speed of \(5\) m/min. A man on south bank of river, capable of swimming \(10\) m/min in still water, wants to swim across the river in shortest time. He should swim:

A person, aiming to reach the exact opposite point on the other bank of a stream, is swimming with a speed of 0.5 m/s at an angle of 120⁰ with the direction of flow of water. The speed of water in the stream is:

1. 1 m/s

2. 0.5 m/s

3. 0.25 m/s

4. 0.433 m/s

A thief is running away on a straight road in a jeep moving with a speed of 9 m/s. A police man chases him on a motor cycle moving at a speed of 10 m/s. If the instantaneous separation of jeep from the motor cycle is 100 m, how long will it take for the policemen to catch the thief

(1) 1 second

(2) 19 second

(3) 90 second

(4) 100 second

A man sitting in a bus travelling in a direction from west to east with a speed of \(40\) km/h observes that the rain-drops are falling vertically downwards. To another man standing on ground the rain will appear: 

A boat takes two hours to travel 8 km and back in still water. If the velocity of water is 4 km/h, the time taken for going upstream 8 km and coming back is 

(1) 2h

(2) 2h 40 min

(3) 1h 20 min

(4) Cannot be estimated with the information given

A 120 m long train is moving towards west with a speed of 10 m/s. A bird flying towards east with a speed of 5 m/s crosses the train. The time taken by the bird to cross the train will be 

(1) 16 sec

(2) 12 sec

(3) 10 sec

(4) 8 sec

A boat crosses a river with a velocity of 8 km/h. If the resulting velocity of boat is 10 km/h, then the velocity of river water is 

(1) 4 km/h

(2) 6 km/h

(3) 8 km/h

(4) 10 km/h
