A car travels due east with a speed of 32.0 km/h. Raindrops are falling at a constant speed vertically with respect to the Earth. The traces of the rain on the side windows of the car make an angle of 44.0° with the vertical. Find the velocity of the rain with respect to the car and the earth. (Enter the magnitude of the velocity.) (a) the car   (b) the Earth
A car travels due east with a speed of 50.0km/h. Raindrops are falling at a constant speed vertically with respect to the Earth. The traces of the rain on the side windows of the car make an angle of 60.0 with the vertical. Find the velocity of the rain with respect to (a) the car and (b) the Earth.
A car travels due east with a speed of 60.0 km/h relative to the ground. Raindrops are falling at a constant speed vertically relative to Earth. The traces of the rain on the side windows of the car make an angle of 70.08 with the vertical. Calculate the velocity of the rain relative to (a) the car and(b) Earth.
