A cannon on a train car fires a projectile to the right with speed v 0 ,
Question:
A cannon on a train car fires a projectile to the right with speed v0, relative to the train, from a barrel elevated at angle θ. The cannon fires just as the train, which had been cruising to the right along a level track with speed vtrain, begins to accelerate with acceleration a. Find an expression for the angle at which the projectile should be fired so that it lands as far as possible from the cannon. You can ignore the small height of the cannon above the track.
