A passenger in the rear seat of a car moving at a steady speed is at rest relative to what?

The passenger in the rear seat of a car moving at a steady speed is at rest relative to the car itself. This is because the passenger is moving with the same velocity as the car, so they appear to be at rest relative to each other.


A passenger in the rear seat of a car moving at a steady speed is at rest relative to?

The passenger in the rear seat of a car moving at a steady speed is at rest relative to the car itself. This is because the passenger and the car are both moving together at the same speed in the same direction, so from the perspective of the car, the passenger appears to be at rest.


If you are standing in an elevator that is moving up at a steady speed of 1 meter per second what is your motion relative to the elevator?

If you are standing in an elevator moving up at a steady speed of 1 meter per second, your motion relative to the elevator is considered at rest. This means that you are moving along with the elevator at the same speed and direction, so you do not feel any relative motion inside the elevator.


A passager on a bus moving east sees a man standing on a curb from the passamger's perspective the man appears to be?

If a passenger on a bus moving east sees a man standing on a curb from the passenger's perspective, the man appears to be moving west at a speed equal to the bus' speed.


What is the name for a steady speed?

The term for a steady speed is constant velocity, which means an object is moving at a consistent rate without changing its direction.

What is relative speed?

Relative speed is the speed between two moving objects with no regards to a fixed reference. Speed is how fast something is moving with respect to an object.


If you are moving to the front of a moving train are you moving faster than the train relative to the earth?

Yes if the train is moving forward, you are moving at the train speed + walking speed relative to the tracks.

Why does one train seem to move when other train is already moving?

Relative motion. To talk about a train moving at a certain speed usually means that the train is moving at a certain speed relative to a stationary observer (relative to the ground). This however also means that a passenger traveling in said train would experience the ground (and every other stationary object) as the moving object. This is why a stationary train may seem to be moving to passengers of an already moving train.


What real motion?

Relative motion is motion COMPARED TO the observer, or to the equipment being used to observe the motion. Relative to the driver of the car, his passenger is not moving. But relative to the person standing at the bus stop, the same passenger in that car is zooming by at high speed. Relative to your seat in the airplane, you're not moving at all, and you can get comfortable and take a nap. But relative to anybody down on the ground, you may be moving almost 10 miles a minute ! and you'll cross half a dozen states before you wake up.

Two bus are moving at the same velocity. What is the speed of either bus with respect to the other?

If their velocities are equal, then the speed of each bus relative to the other is zero. A passenger on one bus could read a newspaper held up by a passenger on the other one.


Suppose you are riding in a car describe your motion relative tothe car the road and the sun?

Relative to the car you are motionless. Relative to the road you are moving at the speed of the car. Relative to the sun you are moving at the speed of Earth as it orbits the sun (30km a second).


How can an object be motionless and in equilibruim?

an object that is not moving can be in equilibrum. an object moving at a steady speed in a straight line can also be equilibrum.
