31. What is relative velocity?

31. A coordinate system from which you view motion is called a reference frame. Relative velocity is the velocity of an object observed in a different, moving reference frame.

32. How do you find the velocities of an object in different reference frames?

32. You can use vector addition to solve motion problems of an object in a moving reference frame.
