Concept explainers

Relative Velocity

It is a measurement of an object with regards to the other object which is moving or stable or stationary. For example, if we are traveling in a bus and the bus is moving at speed of 50km/hr, then our speed is according to the nearby passenger on the bus is zero. According to them, we are not moving. But if one person standing on the ground or road observes us from outside of the bus, according to him we are moving at a speed of 50km/hr and the bus is also moving at a speed of 50km/hr. Now, the motion is recognized by the observer, it depends on a frame of reference or observer. This is motion called relative motion.

The drawing shows an exaggerated view of a rifle that has been 'sighted in' for a 91.4-meter target. If the muzzle speed of the bullet is Vo = 309 m/s, there are the two possible angles 0₁ and 02 between the rifle barrel and the horizontal such that the bullet will hit the target.

(a) the car (b) the Earth Step 1 RC RE (a) To solve for the velocity of the rain relative to the car each moving relative to the Earth, we use the analogy of two objects moving relative to the Earth, each with constant velocity.

Following the pattern of subscripts illustrated in the equation for two objects moving relative to the Earth, VAB = V VAE E-VBE we find that the velocity of the rain relative to the car is v with x- and y-components given by the following equations.
