- Ball shares the horizontal velocity of the car. - No horizontal force (neglecting air resistance). - Horizontal velocity of ball remains constant. - Car and person also move with constant horizontal velocity. - Ball lands back relative to the moving frame.
Sitting in a car moving with constant velocity of 30 km/h eastwards relative to the road, a person throws a ball vertically upwards up to a few metres. If we neglect the air resistance during flight completely, the ball
