A particle is moving east wards with a velocity of `15 ms^(-1)`. In a time of 10 s, the velocity changes to `15 ms^(-1)` northwards. Average acceleration during this time is (in `ms^(-2))`

A

`3/(sqrt2)` north-east

B

`3/(sqrt2)` north-east

C

`3/(sqrt2)` north-west

D

`3 sqrt2` north - west

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

`u=36km//hr`
`=36xx5/18=10m//s`
`v^2-U^2=-2as`
`implies(0)^2-(10)^2=-2(5)(s)`
`implies-100=-10s`
`:.s=10m`
