Train A is traveling at a constant speed VA = 37 mi/hr while car B travels in a straight line along the road as shown at a constant speed VB. A conductor C in the train begins to walk to the rear of the train car at a constant speed of 6 ft/sec relative to the train. If the conductor perceives car B to move directly westward at 19 ft/sec, how fast is the car traveling? UB x B CO Answer: VB = e-N i 35.37 mi/hr
