Question

What is the correct formula for relative velocity of a body A with respect to B?

• A. Vector VR = Vector VA – Vector VB
• B. Vector VR = Vector VA + Vector VB
• C. Vector VR = Vector VA x Vector VB
• D. Vector VR = Vector VB – Vector VA

Answer 1

Answer:

A. Vector VR = Vector VA – Vector VB

The relative velocity of one body with respect to another body can be found out by subtracting their respective velocities in respective order.
