1 of 3 A person hanging onto a mast attached to the bed of a railway flat car releases a steel ball 5 m above a bucket at bed level. The car, ball, and people are all moving uniformly with speed v = 5 m/s as shown. Assume g = 10 m/s2. After it is released, the ball will (ignoring atmospheric drag): Fall 1 m behind the bucket. Fall 2 m behind the bucket. Fall 5 m behind the bucket. Fall into the bucket. v 2
2 of 3 • Ball A is thrown straight upward. Ball B is simultaneously launched at an angle above the horizontal. Both reach the same maximum altitude. Ignoring atmospheric drag, ball B comes back down (reaches the original altitude) • before ball A. • simultaneously with ball A. • after ball A. • at time relative to A that is indeterminate without knowing the angle of launch. vB B A vA path path 3
