A car is moving rectilinearly on a horizontal path with acceleration `a_(0)`.A person sitting inside the car observes that an insect `S` is crawling up the screen with an acceleration a.If `theta` is the inclination of the wind screen with the horizontal, then the acceleration of the insect.

A

perpendicular to screen is `a_(0) tan theta`

B

perpendicular to screen is `a_(0) sin theta`

C

along the horizontal is `a_(0)-a cos theta`

D

parallel to screen is `a+a_(0) cos theta`

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
B, C
`(a_(S))_(HOR) =a_(0)- a cos theta,(a_(S))_(VER)=a_(0)sin theta`
So, (B) and ( C) are correct.
