given below is a more than one choice type MCQ,
A ball is bouncing elastically with a speed 1 m/s between walls of
a railway compartment of size 10 m in a direction perpendicular
to walls. The train is moving at a constant velocity of 10 m/s parallel
to the direction of motion of the ball. As seen from the ground,
(a) the direction of motion of the ball changes every 10 seconds.
(b) speed of ball changes every 10 seconds.
(c) average speed of ball over any 20 second interval is fixed.
(d) the acceleration of ball is the same as from the train.
i could not understand what observer at ground will see,is it ball velocity i.e 1m/s or ball velocity relative to train.
please give answer with an explanation
