Two vehicles driven at different speeds parallel to one another is a great one dimensional way to introduce relative motion. When viewed from above using a quadcopter drone, it is even better!

We get to start our Table of Friends today. Dimensions are your friends and there are so many dimensions to keep track of, so we create our Table of Friends to help us keep track of them. Today's friends have to do with One Dimensional Motion.
