The video tutorial from Najam Academy explains the concept of relative velocity and frame of reference. It begins with an introduction to these concepts and progresses to detailed explanations and examples. The tutorial covers how to calculate relative velocity between two moving objects, including scenarios where they move in the same or opposite directions. Advanced examples are provided, including calculations involving a stationary observer. The video emphasizes understanding vector rules and the importance of the frame of reference in observing motion.
