2) Two railway tracks are parallel to west east direction. Along one track, train A moves with a speed of 45 m/s from
OLEGan [10]

Answer:

Relative\ Velocity = 105m/s

Explanation:

Given

V_A = 45m/s

V_B = 60m/s

Required

Determine the speed of B w.r.t A

The question implies that, we determine the relative velocity of B w.r.t A

Because both trains are moving towards one another, the required velocity is a sum\ of\ velocities\ of both trains:

This is shown below:

Relative\ Velocity = V_A + V_B

Relative\ Velocity = 45m/s + 60m/s

Relative\ Velocity = 105m/s

An 8 kilogram bowling ball is rolling in a straight line toward you. if its momentum is 16 kg* m/s, how fast is it traveling ?
morpeh [17]
From the information given, The mass of the bowling ball is 8 Kilograms and the momentum with which it is moving is 16 kg m/s. We use the formula p = m × v Where p is the momentum, m is the mass and v is the velocity. We need velocity so we rewrite the equation thus: P = mv, therefore p/m = v or v = p/m In our case p = 16 and m = 8 v = p/m v = 16/8 v = 2 Therefore the bowling ball is travelling at 2m/s
