two parallel rail tracks run north -south. train A moves north with speed 54km/h and train B moves south with speed 90km/h. what is the velocity of a monkey running on roof of a train A against its motion (with velocity of 18km/h with respect to A)as observed by a man standing on ground(in m/s).
let train A move in the north direction and let train B move in the south direction
then vA = + 54 km/hr A
VB = - 90 km/hr
Vma = - 18 km/hr
Vba = Vb - VA = - 90 - 54 = 144KM/HR
Vgb = Vg - Vb = 0 - (-90) = 90 km/hr
Vma = Vm - Va
- 18 = Vm - 54
Vm = -18 +54 = 36 km/hr
Vmg = Vm - Vg = 36 - 0 = 36 km/hr
hope it helps you !!!!!!!!! :)
