Answer:
The velocity of the fly tray relative to earth is 11.3 m/s.
Explanation:
Given that,
Speed of train = 10 m/s eastward
Speed of waiter = 1.2 m/s east ward
Speed of tray = 2 m/s north
We need to calculate the velocity of the fly tray relative to earth
Using Pythagorean theorem
Where, = velocity in eastward
= velocity in north
Put the value into the formula
Hence, The velocity of the fly tray relative to earth is 11.3 m/s
