i. Velocify of rain is 23kmh1

ii. The angle of fall of rain (with vertical) is θ=tan112

iii. The angle of fall of rain (with vertical) is θ=sin112

iv. Velocity of rain is 32kmh1

Detailed Solution

 Case I: Let OP=3i^ be the velocity of man. OQ be the velocity of rain. PQ is the velocity of rain relative to man. 

Case II: OR=6i^ is the new velocity of man. RQ = new velocity of rain relative to man 

OP=PR=PQ=3

Now  OQ2=OP2+PQ2, i.e.,  OQ2=32+32i.e.,  OQ=32kmh1and   tan θ=PQOP=33=1, i.e., θ=45
