HERE Is ANOTHER QUESTION RELATED TO THIS . WITH ANSWER.

Two parallel rail tracks run north-south. Train A moves north with a speed of 54 kmh

, What is the

a. the relative velocity of B with respect to A?

b. the relative velocity of the ground with respect to B?

c. a velocity of a monkey running on the roof of the train A against its motion (with its velocity of 18 kmh−1 with respect to the train A) as observed by a man standing on the

ANSWER

a.

Hence, velocity of train B w.r.t train A is 144 km/h toward south.
