A stone is just dropped from the window of a train moving along a horizontal straight track with uniform speed. The path of the stone is

A

Straight Line

B

Circular Path

C

Spiral Path

D

Parabolic Path

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

Because force is constant hence acceleration will be constant. When force is in oblique direction with initial velocity, the resultant path is parabolic path.
