Give the magnitude and direction of the net force acting on a stone of mass 0.1 kg, (a) just after it is dropped from the window of a stationary train, (b) just after it is dropped from the window of a train running at a constant velocity of 36 km/h, (c ) just after it is dropped from the window of a train accelerating with 1 m s^(-2) , (d) lying on the floor of a train which is accelerating with 1 m s^(-2) , the stone being at rest relative to the train. Neglect air resistance throughout.

Explain this common observation clearly: If you look out of the window of a fast moving train, the nearby trees, houses etc. seem to move rapidly in a direction opposite to the train's motion, but the distant objects (hills tops, the Moons, the stars etc) seem to be stationary . (In fact , since you are aware that you are moving , these distant objects seem to move with you. )

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
