        A particle moves towards east with velocity 5 \[m{{s}^{-1}}\]. After 10 s its direction changes towards north with same velocity. The average acceleration of the particle is

    A)  zero                                     

    B)  \[\frac{1}{2}m{{s}^{-2}},N-W\]

    C)  \[\frac{1}{\sqrt{2}}m{{s}^{-2}},N-E\]     

    D)  \[\frac{1}{\sqrt{2}}m{{s}^{-2}},S-W\]

    Correct Answer: B

    Solution :

                    \[\Delta u=2u\,\sin \left( \frac{\theta }{2} \right)=2\times 5\times \sin 45{}^\circ =\frac{10}{\sqrt{2}}\] \[\therefore \]  \[a=\frac{\Delta u}{\Delta T}=\frac{10/\sqrt{2}}{10}=\frac{1}{\sqrt{2}}m{{s}^{-2}}\]
