An aeroplane is flying at a constant horizontal velocity of 600 km/h at an elevation of 6 km towards a point directly above the target on the earth’s surface. At an appropriate time, the pilot released a ball so that it strikes the target on the earth. The ball will appear to be falling
- on a parabolic path as seen by pilot in the plane
- vertically along a straight path as seen by an observer on the ground near the target
- on a parabolic path as seen by an observer on the ground near the target
- on a zig-zag path as seen by pilot in the plane
Answer
