Relative speed: It's the speed of moving object relative to an
observer.

It depends on the position of observer.

Observer at rest    In the same direction    In opposite direction

Give Reasons                             Bec. Traffic affects car's speed
- It's difficult practically to make
uniform speed.                           Bec. Speed is inversely
                                         proportionalwith the time
- The speed of moving body               V = distance / Time
increases by decreasing the time
needed to cover a certain
displacement.
