Relative Velocity
When two objects are in motion, then velocity of one object w. r. t the other is called relative velocity. A and B both are moving on ground. Lets decide that ground is the one at rest, then
VA or VAg is velocity of A as observed by a person on ground also known as absolute velocity. VB or VBg is velocity of B as observed by a person on ground also known as absolute velocity. VAB is velocity of A as observed by B. VAB= VA- VB
VBA is velocity of B as observed by A. VBA= VB- VA.
