A train is moving forward at a velocity ...

 A train is moving forward at a velocity of 2.0m/s. At the instant the train begins to accelerate at `0.80 m//s^(2)` a passenger drops a coin which takes 0.50s to fall to the floor. Relative to a spot on the floor directly under the coin at release, it lands. 

A

1.1 m towards the rear of the train

B

1.0 m towards the rear of the train

C

0.10 m towards the rear of the train

D

0.90 m towards the front of the train
