A man standing on a road has to hold his umbrella at \(30^\circ\) with the vertical to keep the rain away. He throws the umbrella and starts running at \(10~\text{km/h}.\) He finds that raindrops are hitting his head vertically. The speed of raindrops with respect to the road and the moving man are respectively:
1. \(20~\text{km/h},10\sqrt3~\text{km/h}\)
2. \(10\sqrt3~\text{km/h},20~\text{km/h}\)
3. \(10~\text{km/h},20~\text{km/h}\)
4. \(20\sqrt3~\text{km/h},10\sqrt3~\text{km/h}\)

Two bullets are fired horizontally and simultaneously towards each other from rooftops of two buildings 100 m apart and of the same height of 200 m, with the same velocity of 25 m/s. When and where will the two bullets collide? (g = 10 m/s2)

1. after 2 sec at a height of 180 m.

2. after 2 sec at a height of 20 m.

3. after 4 sec at a height of 120 m.

4. they will not collide.
