An aeroplane is flying at a constant horizontal velocity of 600 km/hr at an elevation of 6 km towards a point directly above the target on the earth's surface. At an appropriate time, the pilot releases a ball so that it strikes the target at the earth. The ball will appear to be falling

(1) On a parabolic path as seen by pilot in the plane

(2) Vertically along a straight path as seen by an observer on the ground near the target

(3) On a parabolic path as seen by an observer on the ground near the target

(4) On a zig-zag path as seen by pilot in the plane
