Answer 1

Answer:

Explanation:

his is a question related to relative motion, here is the answer :-

let the two cars moving in same direction be A and B and the third car be C.

let the velocity of C be 'u'.

so velocity of C with respect to B would be. u+30(as they are moving in opposite directions).

do the speed u+30 would be given by

5/(4÷60) = u+30

5×60/4= u+30

75 = u+30

hence u = 45 kmph

Hope this helps my friend.☺
