Problem

STATEMENT-1 : For an observer looking out through the window of a fast moving train, the nearby objects appear to move in the opposite direction to the train, while the distant objects appear to be stationary. STATEMENT-2 : If the observer and the object are moving at velocities v⃗1\vec{v}_1 and v⃗2\vec{v}_2 respectively with reference to a laboratory frame, the velocity of the object with respect to the observer is v⃗2−v⃗1\vec{v}_2 - \vec{v}_1 . [2008] (1) Statement-1 is True, Statement-2 is True; Statement-2 is a correct explanation for Statement-1 (2) Statement-1 is True, Statement-2 is True; Statement-2 is NOT a correct explanation for Statement-1 (3) Statement -1 is True, Statement-2 is False (4) Statement -1 is False, Statement-2 is True
