A train moves northwards with speed 80 ...

A train moves northwards with speed `80 km h^(-1)` . While a car moves towards east with a speed of ` 60 km h^(-1)` , what is the velocity of the train w.r.t the driver of the car ?

Text Solution

AI Generated Solution

To find the velocity of the train with respect to the driver of the car, we can follow these steps: ### Step 1: Define the Directions We need to establish a coordinate system. In this case: - East is the positive x-direction. - North is the positive y-direction. ### Step 2: Represent the Velocities as Vectors ...
