Answer:
Option(B) 56. east of north
Explanation:
2D Motion
If objects are moving in an XY plane subject to net force (F), acceleration (a), velocity (v) and displacement (r) in both axes, we must consider all those magnitudes as vectors because they have components in x and y.
If [tex]\vec a[/tex] is the acceleration vector, then
[tex]\vec v=\vec v_o+\vec a.t[/tex]
[tex]\vec r=\vec v_o.t+\frac{\vec a.t^2}{2}+\vec r_o[/tex]
[tex]\vec F=m.\vec a[/tex]
Assuming the positive direction to the right and upwards, we are given the following data
[tex]m=2\ kg[/tex]
[tex]\vec v_o=0\ m/s\ \hat i+10\ \hat j[/tex]
The x-component of the velocity is zero because it due north.
The force is applied eastward;
[tex]\vec F=10\ \hat i+0\ N\ \hat j[/tex]
t=3 sec
From the formula
[tex]\vec F=m.\vec a[/tex]
we can solve for [tex]\vec a[/tex]
[tex]\displaystyle \vec a=\frac{\vec F}{m}[/tex]
[tex]\displaystyle \vec a=\frac{10\ \hat i+0\ N\ \hat j}{2\ kg}[/tex]
[tex]\displaystyle \vec a=5\ m/sec^2\ \hat i+0\ \hat j[/tex]
We can now compute the velocity at t=3 sec
[tex]\vec v=0\ \hat i+10\ m/s\ \hat j+\ (5\ m/sec^2\ \hat i+0\ \hat j)3\ sec[/tex]
Adding and simplifying
[tex]\vec v=15\ m/s\ \hat i+10\ m/s\ \ \hat j[/tex]
The direction is given by the angle computed as
[tex]\displaystyle tan\theta=\frac{v_y}{v_x}[/tex]
[tex]\displaystyle tan\theta=\frac{10}{15}[/tex]
[tex]\theta=arctan(0.667)[/tex]
[tex]\theta=33.7^o\approx 34^o[/tex]
This angle is north of east, the required angle is
[tex]90^o-34^o=56^o[/tex]
