Answer:

(3) Bus may be moving in any direction between South and East

Explanation:

If no air is blowing then due to the movement of the bus, the flag will flutter in the direction opposite to the bus. Since the flag is fluttering in the North direction therefore the resultant of the wind due to movement of the bus and the wind blowing is in the North direction. This is possible when the wind due to the movement of the bus is somewhere in the North-West direction which means that the bus must be moving somewhere in the South-East direction.

Answer:

The correct answer is option (3) Bus may be moving in any direction between South and East.

the flag will flutter in the direction opposite to the bus due to the movement of the bus, if air is not blowing.  

According to the problem  the flag is fluttering in the North direction therefore the resultant of the wind due to movement of the bus and the wind blowing is in the North direction.

It can be possible when the wind due to the movement of the bus is somewhere in the North-West direction which means that the bus must be moving somewhere in the South-East direction.
