Question

The velocity of a particle is towards west at an instant. Its acceleration is not towards west, not towards east, not towards South and not towards north. Give an example of this type of motion?

Answer 1

Answer:

project a body obliquely in West direction at highest point it's velocity is towards west and acceleration due to gravity acts vertically downward but this is not the acceleration of the body it is the acceleration due to gravity

Answer 2

Answer:

• if we threw a ball horizontally on any surface in west direction , than only force acting on it is gravity, acting vertically downward, [gravitational force] and hence the acceleration is also vertically downward.
