Train A is moving along two parallel rail tracks towards north with 72 km h-1 and train B is moving towards south with speed 108 km  h-1. Velocity of train B with respect to A and velocity of ground with respect to B are (in m s-1):
  1. -30 and 50
  2. -50 and -30
  3. -50 and 30
  4. 50 and -30

Solution

VA=72 km h-1=72×10003600=20 m s-1 and 

VB=-108 km h-1=-108×10003600=-30 m s-1

Velocity of B w.r.t. A:

VB/A=-30-20= 50 m s-1

Velocity of ground w.r.t. B:

VG/B=0--30=30 m s-1
