Question

As seen in one of the lecture demonstrations, a small cart is rolling at constant velocity on a level track. While moving, the cart shoots a small ball straight up. The cart continues to roll along the track while the ball undergoes projectile motion. Where will the ball land with respect to the cart? (ignore friction and air resistance)
