NEET Physics Average Acceleration MCQ Question
A body is moving with velocity 30 m/s towards east. After 10 seconds its velocity becomes 40 m/s towards north. The average acceleration of the body is
1 m/s² North East
2 m/s² North West
5 m/s² South East
4 m/s² South West
Correct Answer
Detailed Explanation
The change in velocity vector is calculated using vector subtraction. The magnitude of the average acceleration is the change in velocity divided by the time interval.
