A football player is moving southward and suddenly turns eastward with the same speed to avoid an opponent. The force that acts on the player while turning is :
- Aalong northward
- Balong north-east
- Calong south-west
- Dalong eastward
View written solutionFree
Correct answer: B
$$\vec{V}_{\mathrm{i}}=(\mathrm{V})$$ Southward
$$\overrightarrow{\mathrm{V}}_{\mathrm{F}}=(\mathrm{V})$$ Eastward
$$\overrightarrow{\Delta \mathrm{V}}=\overrightarrow{\mathrm{V}}_{\mathrm{F}}-\overrightarrow{\mathrm{V}}_{\mathrm{i}}$$
= Along North - East
