Answer & Solution

Correct Answer

(C) straight line vertically down the plane

Step-by-step Solution

Detailed explanation

\({v}_{{B}}={u}_{0} \hat{{i}}-{gt} \hat{{j}} \) \(\overrightarrow{{v}}_{{B} / {P}}=\overrightarrow{{v}}_{{B}}-\overrightarrow{{v}}_{{P}}\) \(\overrightarrow{{v}}_{{B} / {P}}=-8 \hat{{t}} \hat{{j}}\) straight line vertically down
