(A) $\sin^{-1}\left(\frac{1}{3}\right)$ (B) $\cos^{-1}(3)$ (C) $\tan^{-1}\left(\frac{1}{3}\right)$ (D) $\tan^{-1}(3)$
(A) $\sin^{-1}\left(\frac{1}{3}\right)$ (B) $\cos^{-1}(3)$ (C) $\tan^{-1}\left(\frac{1}{3}\right)$ (D) $\tan^{-1}(3)$
Correct Answer: D
Explanation:
For rain drops to strike the wind screen normally, velocity of rain with respect to car $\vec{v}_{RC} = \vec{v}_{R} - \vec{v}_{C}$ should be perpendicular to the wind screen.
So, components of $\vec{v}_{R}$ and $-\vec{v}_{C}$ parallel to wind screen should cancel each other.
$\begin{array}{r l} \Rightarrow & 6 \cos \alpha = 2 \sin \alpha \\ \Rightarrow & \tan \alpha = 3 \\ \Rightarrow & \alpha = \tan^ {- 1} (3) \end{array}$
