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…

Textbook Question

Chapter 4, Problem 61AP

Lisa in her Lamborghini accelerates at ( 3.00 i ^ − 2.00 j ^ ) m / s 2 , while Jill in her Jaguar accelerates at ( 1.00 i ^ − 3.00 j ^ ) m / s 2 . They both start from rest at the origin. After 5.00 s, (a) what is Lisa’s speed with respect to Jill. (b) how far apart are they, and (c) what is Lisa’s acceleration relative to Jill?
