• C. The right hand will be negative, left hand will also be negative, and both the hands together will also be negative
• D. The right hand will be positive, left hand will also be positive, and both the hands together will also be positive

Answer 1

The correct option is C

The right hand will be negative, left hand will also be negative, and both the hands together will also be negative

When a truck is taking a turn to the right, the signs of the moments applied by the right hand will be negative, left hand will also be negative and by both the hand will also be negative, because the rotation produced in each case is clockwise.
