At noon, the sun and the earth pull the objects on the earth's surface in opposite directions. At midnight the sun and the earth pull these objects in same direction. Is the weight of an object, as measured by a spring balance on the earth's surface, more at midnight as compared to its weight at noon?
A boy standing on a long railroad car throws a ball straight upwards. The car is moving on the horizontal road with an acceleration of $1m/s^2$ and the projection velocity in the vertical direction is 9.8m/s. How far behind the boy will the ball fall on the car?
