If \[{{\text{V}}_{\text{r}}}\] is the velocity of rain falling vertically and \[{{\text{V}}_{\text{m}}}\] is the velocity of a man walking on a level road, and \[\theta \] is the angle with vertical at which he should hold the umbrella to protect himself than the relative velocity of rain w.r.t. the man is given by:

A. \[{{\text{V}}_{\text{r}\,\text{m}}}=\sqrt{{{\text{V}}_{r}}^{2}+{{\text{V}}_{\text{m}}}^{2}+2{{\text{V}}_{r}}{{\text{V}}_{\text{m}}}\cos \theta }\]
B. \[{{\text{V}}_{\text{r}\,\text{m}}}=\sqrt{{{\text{V}}_{r}}^{2}+{{\text{V}}_{\text{m}}}^{2}-2{{\text{V}}_{r}}{{\text{V}}_{\text{m}}}\cos \theta }\]
C. \[{{\text{V}}_{\text{r}\,\text{m}}}=\sqrt{{{\text{V}}_{r}}^{2}+{{\text{V}}_{\text{m}}}^{2}}\]
D. \[{{\text{V}}_{\text{r}\,\text{m}}}=\sqrt{{{\text{V}}_{r}}^{2}-{{\text{V}}_{\text{m}}}^{2}}\]
Answer» D. \[{{\text{V}}_{\text{r}\,\text{m}}}=\sqrt{{{\text{V}}_{r}}^{2}-{{\text{V}}_{\text{m}}}^{2}}\]
