Calculate Separation Velocity (Vs)



Formula

The formula to calculate the Separation Velocity (Vs) is:

\[ V_s = V_L + V_R \]

Where:

What is a Separation Velocity?

A separation velocity is a measure of the rate of change of displacement between two objects moving away from each other. It is the sum of the magnitudes of their respective velocities. This concept is important in various fields such as physics, engineering, and collision analysis to understand how quickly two objects are moving apart.

Example Calculation

Let's assume the following values:

Using the formula to calculate the Separation Velocity:

\[ V_s = 10 + 15 = 25 \text{ m/s} \]

The Separation Velocity is 25 m/s.
