A) East- north direction
B) West-north direction
C) South-east direction
D) None of these
Explanation
(b) $\overrightarrow{v_{ct}} = \overrightarrow{v_{c}} - \overrightarrow{v_{t}}$
$\overrightarrow{v_{ct}} = \overrightarrow{v_{c}} + \left( - \overrightarrow{v_{t}} \right)$
Velocity of car $w.r.t.$ train $(v_{ct})$ is towards West-North
