Answer to Question #167013 in Mechanics | Relativity for Abdulrahman Ibrahim

Question

Two aircraft P and Q are flying at the same speed, 300m/s. The direction along which P is flying is at right angles to the direction along which Q is flying. Find the magnitude of the velocity of the aircraft P relative to aircraft Q (shows with graphically).

Answer 1

As both are moving at right angles. The magnitude of velocity of P has no components along velocity of Q. Hence the answer is zero
