Answer #1

if The direction of an object's velocity changes uniformly from east to south. then the direction of the acceleration will also be east to west. Because direction of acceleration is same as direction of change in velocity.

Since, Acceleration is rate of change of velocity.

    At one instant a bicyclist is 40.0m due east of a park's flagpole, going due south with a speed of 10.0m/s. Then 30.0s later, the cyclist is 40.0m due north of the flagpole, going due east with a speed of 10.0 m/s. For the cyclist in the 30.0s interval, what are the (a) magnitude and (b) direction of the displacement, the (c) magnitude and(d) direction of the average velocity and the (e) magnitude and (f) direction of the average acceleration?
