A person sitting in the rear end of the compartment throws a ball towards the front end. The ball follows a parabolic path. The train is moving with uniform velocity of `20ms^(-1)`. A person standing outside on the ground also observers the ball. How will the maximum heights `(h_(m))` attained and the ranges (R) seen by thrower and the outside observer compare each other?

A

same `h_(m)` differente R

B

same `h_(m)` and R

C

different `h_(m)` same R

D

different `h_(m)` and R

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
a
The motion of the train will affect only the horizontal component of the velocity of the ball. Since, vertical component is same for both observer, the `h_(m)` will be the same, but R will be different.
