A flag is mounted on a car moving due North with velocity of `20 km//hr`. Strong winds are blowing due East with velocity of `20km//hr`. The flag will point in direction

A

East

B

North-East

C

South-East

D

South-West

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
C

`vecv_(w)=20hati, vecv_(c)=20hatj`
Here we have to look for velocity of wind w.r.t car.
So, `vecv_(w//c)=vecv_(w)-vecv_(c)=20hati-20hatj`
This is in south-east direction.
