Relative Motion
Core Sentence / 核心句
Velocity is measured relative to a reference frame, and frame changes combine by vector addition.
中文理解:速度必须回答“谁相对谁”;二维问题先写下标链,再画矢量三角形。
Formula / 公式
Boat-River Pattern / 小船过河
- minimum time: maximize cross-river component;
- minimum distance: cancel downstream component。
Watch Out / 易错点
“最短时间”和“最短路程”不是同一目标;下标顺序改变会让矢量反向。
