Anoop is moving due east with a velocity...

Anoop is moving due east with a velocity of `1 m//s` and Dhyani is moving due west with a velocity of `2 m//s.` what is the velocity of Anoop with respect to Dhyani?

Verified by Experts

It is a one dimensional motion. So, let us choose the east direction as positive and the west as negative. Now, given that
`v_s` = velocity of Seeta = 1 m/s
and `V_G`=velocity of Geeta=-2m//s
Thus `V_(SG)`=velocity of Seeta with respect to Geeta
`=V_s-V_G=1-1(-2)=3m//s`
Hence, velocity of Seeta with respect to Geeta is 3 m/s due east
