$A$ man is running on a level road with a speed of $10 \ m/s$. He feels that the rain is falling vertically downward with a speed of $10 \sqrt{3} \ m/s$. If he runs in the opposite direction with the same speed,then the speed of the rain relative to him will be:

  • A
    $20 \ m/s$
  • B
    $10 \sqrt{3} \ m/s$
  • C
    $10 \sqrt{7} \ m/s$
  • D
    $\frac{10}{\sqrt{3}} \ m/s$
