Question
which statement best describes the speed of the ball from seans frame of reference and rheas frame of reference? the speed of the ball from seans reference frame would be greater than the speed of the ball from rheas reference frame. the speed of the ball from seans reference frame would be less than the speed of the ball from rheas reference frame. the speed of the ball from seans and rheas reference frames would be 0 km/h. the speed of the ball from seans and rheas reference frames would be less than 0 km/h.
In physics, speed is relative to the observer's frame of reference. Without further context about Sean's and Rhea's motion relative to the ball, we assume a general understanding of relative - motion concepts. If Sean is moving towards the ball and Rhea is stationary relative to the ball (or moving at a slower speed towards/away from it), the speed of the ball from Sean's frame of reference would be greater.
