Meriam, Kraige & Bolton β Kinematics of Particles: Problem 2_150
2/150 Train A is traveling at a constant speed \( v_A = 35 \) mi/hr while car B travels in a straight line along the road as shown at a constant speed \( v_B \). A conductor C in the train begins to walk to the rear of the train car at a constant speed of 4 ft/sec relative to the train. If the conductor perceives car B to move directly westward at 16 ft/sec, how fast is the car traveling?
