An object falls from the car and the observer in the train notices that the car has moved on for one minute, turned back, and moved with a speed of 10 km/h and picked up the object two minutes after turning. Find
(a) the velocity of the train relative to the ground and
(b) the velocity of the car during its forward and reverse journeys.
Assume that the object comes to rest immediately after fall from the point of view of the observer on the ground.
