Explanation:
Given that,
Bill is riding his bicycle at 5 m/s eastward: and Carlos is driving his car at 15 m/s westward.
Taking eastward as positive direction, we have:
is the velocity of Bill with respect to Amy (which is stationary)
is the velocity of Carlos with respect to Amy.
Bill is moving 5 m/s eastward compared to Amy at rest, so the velocity of Bill's reference frame is

Therefore, Carlos velocity in Bill's reference frame will be

So, the magnitude is 20 m/s and the direction is westward (negative sign).
Answer:
3.7 m/s
Explanation:
M = 444 kg
U = 5 m/s
m = 344 kg
u = - 5 m/s
Let the velocity of train is V and the car s v after the collision.
As the collision is elastic
By use of conservation of momentum
MU + mu = MV + mv
444 x 5 - 344 x 5 = 444 V + 344 v
500 = 444 V + 344 v
125 = 111 V + 86 v .... (1)
By using the formula of coefficient of restitution ( e = 1 for elastic collision)

-5 - 5 = V - v
V - v = - 10
v = V + 10
Substitute the value of v in equation (1)
125 = 111 V + 86 (V + 10)
125 = 197 V + 860
197 V = - 735
V = - 3.7 m/s
Thus, the speed of first car after collision is 3.7 m/s. negative sign shows that the direction is reverse as before the collision.
Answer:
55000000 years
Explanation:
Rate of North American Plate moving (Velocity) = 20 mm/yr
Degrees New York has to move = 10° west
New York's longitude = 110 km/°
Distance of New York = 110×10 = 1100 km
= 1100×10⁶ mm

∴ Time taken by New York to move 10° west is 55000000 years
