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.

Question

A sailboat is traveling east at 5.5 m/s. A sudden gust of wind gives the boat an acceleration a = (1.15 m/s² 25° north of east). What is the boat's speed 10.0 seconds later when the gust subsides and what is the boat's direction (in deg north of east) 10.0 seconds later when the gust subsides?

You take a three-day hiking. On the first day, you travel 5.0 km heading East. On the second day you’ve enjoyed the scenery so much that you forgot to take note how far you have walked and in what direction. On the third day, after wandering for 8.5 km and in the direction 37o South of West, you find yourself in the base camp where you have started (which means the total displacement is zero). Determine your displacement during the second day of your trip.
