Relative motion in one dimension
On a frictionless horizontal surface, assumed to be the x-y plane., a small trolley A is moving along a straight line parallel to the y-axis with a constant velocity of $(\sqrt{3} -1 ) ms^{-1}$. At a particular instant, when the OA line makes an angle of $45^{\circ}$ with the axis, a ball is thrown along the surface from the origin O. Its velocity makes an angle $\phi$ with the x-axis and it hits the trolley.

a. The motion of the ball is observed from the frame of the trolley. Calculate the angle $\theta$ made by the velocity vector of the ball with the x-axis in this frame.
b. Find the speed of the ball with respect to the surface, if $\phi = \dfrac{4 \theta}{3}$ .
