Question 1072827: a bus is traveling along a straight road at 100kmhr^-1 and the bus conductor walks at 6kmhr-1 on the floor of the bus and in the same direction as the bus. Find the speed of the conductor relative to the road, and relative to the bus. If the bus conductor now walks at the same rate but in opposite direction as the bus, find his new speed relative to the road.

You can put this solution on YOUR website! a bus is traveling along a straight road at 100kmhr^-1 and the bus conductor walks at 6kmhr-1 on the floor of the bus and in the same direction as the bus. Find the speed of the conductor relative to the road, and relative to the bus.
----
Relative to the bus, it's 6 km/hr
Relative to the road, it's the sum.
==========================================
If the bus conductor now walks at the same rate but in opposite direction as the bus, find his new speed relative to the road.
---
Relative to the road, it's the difference of the speeds.
