The force of friction on a moving object always acts:

What is the direction of force of friction acting on a moving object ?

Assertion: In projectile motion, the acceleration is constant in both magnitude and direction but the velocity changes in both magnitude and direction. Reason: When a force or accelration is acting in an oblique direction to the direction of velocity then both magnitude and direction of the velocity may be changed.

A force of constant magnitude F acts on a particle moving in a plane such that it is perpendicular to the velocity vecv(|vecv|=v) of the body and the force is always direct towards a fixed point. Then the angle turned by the velocity vector of the particle as it covers a distance S is (take mass of the particle as m)
