Q:

A boy sitting in a train moving with a uniform velocity drops a coin outside. A man standing outside the train will find the trajectory of the coin to be

A) a parabola B) a circle
C) a horizontal straight line D) a vertical straight line
 
Answer & Explanation Answer: A) a parabola

But then, it is also pulled down by earth's gravity continuously. In this situation its horizontal motion gives way to the parabolic motion until it reaches the ground.
