Suppose two bodies A and B are moving perpendicular to each other with velocities 'a' and 'b'.
A with 'a'

---------------------------------------------->B with 'b'
Now how would they measure their relative velocitites?As A's velocity in the direction of motion of B = 0 ,B would feel that A is moving away(linearly) from it with a velocity'b'
And A would feel that B is moving away with velocity 'a'.
Now how do we compare their relative velocity? This is in order to aply the Lorentz transfomation.
A with 'a'
