$A$ man is running at a speed of $5 \, m/s$. The rain drops appear to be falling at an angle of $45^{\circ}$ from the vertical. If the rain drops are actually falling vertically downwards,then the velocity of the rain drops (in $m/s$) is:

  • A
    $5$
  • B
    $5 \sqrt{3}$
  • C
    $5 \sqrt{2}$
  • D
    $4$

$A$ swimmer can swim with speed '$v$' with respect to still water in a river which is flowing with speed '$u$'. There is a float moving with the river. Now the swimmer overtakes the float,gets a lead of '$l$',and returns back to the float. The time taken by the swimmer in this process will be:

Two trains $A$ and $B$ travel on two parallel rail tracks in opposite directions with speeds $v_1$ and $v_2$, respectively. They take $4 \ s$ to pass each other at these speeds. If the speed of train $A$ is increased by $50 \%$, then they take $3 \ s$ to pass each other. The ratio $v_1 / v_2$ is:
