A boy travelling in an open car moving on a levelled road with constant speed tosses a ball vertically up in the air and catches it back. Sketch the motion of the ball as observed by a boy standing on the footpath. Give explanation to support your diagram.

The path of the ball is parabolic. Ball and car travels equal horizontal distance because both cars have same speed. Due to its vertical speed, the ball follows a parabolic path.
