The driver of a car moving towards a rocket launching pad with a speed of 6 m / s observes that the rocket is moving with speed of 10 ~m / s . The upward speed of the rocket as seen by the stationary observer is
Options
- A4 ~m / s
- B6 ~m / s
- C8 ~m / s
- D11 ~m / s
Correct answer
D. 11 ~m / s
Step-by-step solution
Observed speed, aligned v & = (10)^2+(6)^2 = 100+36 & = 136 11 ~m / s aligned
