Question

A train is moving towards east and a car is along north,both
with same speed The observed direction of the car to the passenger
in the train
a) South-East direction b) North-East direction c) North-West
direction d) None of these

nitish.gupta · Accepted Answer

According to the relative motion concept, the car will be
moving in the North-West direction as seen from the train
Why?
This is because when train is moving in east direction car
will be receding away in west direction as seen from the train
Also, since car is moving in north direction the resultant velocity
of the car as seen from the train will be resultant of velocity
along the west direction and north direction Since velocity of
train and car is same the resultant direction of velocity of car as
seen from the train will be North-west direction
