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.

Determine the total displacement from the starting point. 2. I walked 1 km N, 2 km E, 3 km S, and then 4 km W. What is the total distance I traveled? What is my total displacement? The speed of an object is a measure of how fast it moves. If the object is moving from on position to another in a measured time, its average speed v is obtained by dividing the distan traveled by the time taken to cover the distance.
