A train is moving with a velocity of 100 km/hr. Car A is traveling with velocity 100km/hr w.r.t. train in the opposite direction. Car B is traveling at the rate of 100 km/hr on the ground alongside the train. A man X is sitting inside the train and a man Y is standing outside the train and watching the entire episode. With respect to who is the car A at rest?
