Questions (p 65) B Tf you are riding ona train that speeds past arother train moving inthe same direction on an adjacent treck, it ‘appears that the other train is moving backward, Why? 13. Your reference frame is that of the train you are riding. If you are traveling with a relatively constant velocity (not over a hill or around a curve or drastically changing speed), then you will interpret your reference frame as being a rest. Since you are moving forward Taser than the other train, the other ‘cain is moving backwards relative to you. Seeing the other train go past your window from front to rear makes it ook like the other train is going backwards.

(b) The magnitude of the resultant velocity will be given by VIVEF Vp) = V(G.1 mis) + (0.9 mis)") = 2.3 mis. (©) Because the velocities given are perpendicular, the torpedo’s angle will be given by tan 0 = (current velocity vector) /(torpedo velocity vector) = (09 mfs)/(2.1 m/s) = 043,500 = 23°. (a) Because the velocities given are perpendicular, the torpedo should be aimed at the angle given by sin @ = (current velocity vector) /(torpedo velocity vector) = (0.9 m/s)/(2.1 mis) = 0.43, 90 @ = 2: This response correctly accounts for the relative velocity of two perpendicular velocity vectors. The response to part a demonstrates a basic kinematics equation, while the response to part b utilizes the Pythagorean theorem to determine the magnitude of the resultant vector, which is the hypotenuse of the vector sum.
