A baseball pitcher with a 90-mi/h fastball throws a ball while standing on a railroad flatcar moving at 110 mi/h. The ball is thrown in the same direction as that of the velocity of the train. If you apply the Galilean velocity transformation equation to this situation, is the speed of the ball relative to the Earth (a) 90 mi/h, (b) 110 mi/h, (c) 20 mi/h, (d) 200 mi/h, or (e) impossible to determine?
