If you are facing north and turn in anti-clockwise direction, in which direction will you face ?

Which direction will you face if you start facing (a) east and make 1/2 of a revolution clockwise? (b) east and make (1) 1/2 of a revolution clockwise? (c) west and make 3/4 of a revolution anti-clockwise? (d) south and make one full revolution? (Should we specify clockwise or anti-clockwise for this last question? Why not?)

If the represented by the equation 3y^2-x^2+2sqrt(3)x-3=0 are rotated about the point (sqrt(3),0) through an angle of 15^0 , one in clockwise direction and the other in anticlockwise direction, so that they become perpendicular, then the equation of the pair of lines in the new position is

What part of a revolution have you turned through if you stand facing(a) east and turn clockwise to face north?(b) south and turn clockwise to face east?(c) west and turn clockwise to face east?

When you are standstill holding a flag, the flag flutters in the direction of wind. When you start running the direction of fluttering of the flag changes to the direction of the wind relative to you. In all case a flag flutters in the direction of the wind relative to the flag. Winds is blowing uniformly due north everywhere with velocity 12 m/s. A car mounted with a flag starts running towards cast. after 9s from starts the flag flutters in 53^(@) north of west and after 16 s from the start the flag flutters in 37^(@) north of west. (a) Find velocity of the car 9 s after it starts. (b) Find velocity of the car 16 s after it starts. (c) If the car maintains uniform acceleration, find acceleration of the car.

Match the following : (i) straight angle (a) Less than one-fourth of a revolution (ii) Right angle (b) More than half a revolution (iii) Acute angle (c) Half of a revolution (iv) Obtuse angle (d) One-fourth of a revolution (v) Reflex angle (e) Between 1/4 and 1/2 of a revolution (f) One complete revolution

When you are standstill holding a flag, the flag flutters in the direction of wind. When you start running the direction of fluttering of the flag changes to the direction of the wind relative to you. In all case a flag flutters in the direction of the wind relative to the flag. When you are standstill holding a flag the flag flutters in the north and when you run at 8 m/s due cast. theflag flutters in direction 37^(@) north of west. Find the wind velocity.
