Question

A man is walking in the rain with the speed of 4 m/s in the west direction, and it is raining vertically downwards with the speed of 4 m/s. Find the direction of the person’s umbrella so that the rain does not wet him.

 

  1. 30
  2. 60
  3. 45
  4. 0

hintHint:

45°

The correct answer is: 45


    tan theta space equals space P over B space equals space 4 over 4 space equals space 1 space
theta space equals space 45 to the power of omicron
    Therefore, a person should hold his umbrella at an angle of 45° to the verticle so that the rain does not wet him.
