A train is moving towards East and a car is along North, both are moving with same speed. The observed direction of car to the passenger in the train is

• A

  East-North
• B

  South-East
• Correct answer
  C

  West-North
• D

  North-South

Solution

According to the situation,



The velocity of car with respect to the train,

$v_{ct}=v_c-v_t$

$=v\widehat{j}-v\widehat{i}=v\left(-\widehat{i}+\widehat{j}\right)$

Thus,



The velocity of the car w.r.t. the train is in the West-North direction.

Hence, the correct answer is option: 'C'.
