There are two types of energies that are taking place in the fruit is weighed in a spring scale. These are the gravitational potential energy and the elastic potential energy. The gravitational potential energy could be primarily attributed to the elevation of the fruit with respect to the ground.
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).
