A stone dropped from a window of a stationary railway carriage takes 2secs to reach the ground .in what time the stone will reach the ground wheen cariagge is moving with velocity of 80km/hr

Railway carriage moves with the speed of 80 Km/h horizontally parallel to the track and stone falls vertically downwards. We know that vertical motion of a body is independent of horizontal motion. So time taken by the stone will remain  unchanged i. e.  it will be 2 second only.
