A boy is holding a ball in his hand in a train moving with constant velocity $v$. Then he releases the ball from height $H$ above the floor of the train. What trajectory will the boy see?
If the train moved in a constant acceleration, $a$ what would be the trajectory with respect to the boy? How far in the horizontal direction will the ball hit the floor in this case (according to the reference frame of the train)?
