Answer:
Their relative speed is 44 m/s
Explanation:
* Lets explain what is the relative speed
Relative motion is the change in position with time of one object
compared to another object.
If objects moving in the same direction towards, or away from, each
other, then relative speed is ⇒ fastest speed – slowest speed
If objects moving in opposite directions towards, or away from, each
other, then relative speed is ⇒ the sum of the two speeds together
* Lets solve the problem
Two cars are travelling side by side down a straight road in opposite
directions.
Both cars are travelling at a speed of 22 m/s
The two cars are travelling in opposite direction, then the relative
speed is the sum of their speed together
They are travelling at the same speed 22 m/s.
Then their relative speed = 22 + 22= 44 m/s
* Their relative speed is 44 m/s
