$STATEMENT-1$ For an observer looking out through the window of a fast-moving train,the nearby objects appear to move in the opposite direction to the train,while the distant objects appear to be stationary.
$STATEMENT-2$ If the observer and the object are moving at velocities $\vec{V}_1$ and $\vec{V}_2$ respectively with reference to a laboratory frame,the velocity of the object with respect to the observer is $\vec{V}_2 - \vec{V}_1$.

$A$ man sitting in a bus travelling from west to east with a speed of $40 \, km/h$ observes that the rain-drops are falling vertically down. To another man standing on the ground,the rain will appear:

$A$ particle $(A)$ moves due north at $3\,km/h$ and another particle $(B)$ moves due west at $4\,km/h$. The relative velocity of $A$ with respect to $B$ is $(\tan 37^{\circ} = 3/4)$.

Rain is falling at an angle of $30^{\circ}$ from the vertical due to the wind with a speed of $40 \ m/s$. $A$ car is travelling horizontally in the direction opposite to the wind,at a speed of $40 \ m/s$. At what angle from the vertical will it experience the rain falling from (in $^{\circ}$)?
