Answer» She should hold the umbrella a little inclined towards the west from the vertical. The drops which are falling a little ahead of the current position of the woman, will fall on her, because she moves in that direction. relative velocity of the rain drops wrt cyclist the magnitude of relative velocity the rain drops wrt woman direction of relative velocity of the rain drops = So the cyclist should hold the umbrella at 18.92 deg to the vertical in the forward direction. |
