Car P is heading east with a speed V and car Q is heading north with a speed \(\sqrt{3}\). What is the velocity of car Q with respect to car P?
V\(\sqrt{3}\),heading north
2V,30° east of north
V\(\sqrt{3}\),60° west of north
2V,30° west of north
V\(\sqrt{2}\),45° west of north
The correct answer is (D): 2V,30° west of north
