When a car is at rest, its driver sees rain drops falling on it vertically. When driving the car with speed \(v,\) he sees that rain drops are coming at an angle \(60^\circ \) from the horizontal.

A shell is fired from a fixed artillery gun with an initial speed \(u\) such that it hits the target on the ground at a distance \(R\) from it. If \(t_1\) and \(t_2\) are the values of the time taken by it to hit the target in two possible ways, the product \(t_1t_2\) is:
