$A$ steam boat goes across a lake and comes back: $(i)$ on a quiet day when the water is still and $(ii)$ on a rough day when there is a uniform current so as to help the journey onward and to impede the journey back. If the speed of the launch,on both days,was same,the time required for the complete journey on the rough day as compared to that on the quiet day,will be

$A$ 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:

Two persons $A$ and $B$ are located in the $X-Y$ plane at the points $(0,0)$ and $(0,10)$ respectively. (The distances are measured in $MKS$ units). At time $t=0$,they start moving simultaneously with velocities $\overrightarrow{v}_A = 2\hat{j} \text{ m/s}$ and $\overrightarrow{v}_B = 2\hat{i} \text{ m/s}$ respectively. The time after which $A$ and $B$ are at their closest distance is:

$A$ glass windscreen,whose inclination with the vertical can be changed,is mounted on a car. The car moves horizontally with a speed of $2\,m/s$. At what angle $\alpha$ with the vertical should the windscreen be placed so that the rain drops falling vertically downwards with velocity $6\,m/s$ strike the windscreen perpendicularly?
