A body is moving with an initial velocity of (10 2 ~ms ⁻¹ ) in the north-east direction. If it is subjected to an acceleration of (2 ~ms ⁻² ) directed towards the south, then velocity of the body after (5 ~s ) is
Options
- A(10 ~ms ⁻¹ ), towards east
- B(10 ~ms ⁻¹ ), towards north
- C(10 ~ms ⁻¹ ), towards south
- D(10 ~ms ⁻¹ ), towards north-east
Correct answer
A. (10 ~ms ⁻¹ ), towards east
Step-by-step solution
The given situation is shown in the following figure Initial velocity of body, ( aligned & u =10 2 45^ i +10 2 45^ j & =10 i +10 j =10( i + j ) aligned ) Acceleration applied on body in south direction, ( a _s=2(- j )=-2 j ) ( ) Velocity of body after (5 ~s ) is given as ( aligned v & = u + a _s t=10( i + j )+(-2 j ) 5 & =10 i +10 j -10 j =10 i aligned ) Hence, body will move towards east with the velocity (10 ~ms ⁻¹ ).
