Answer:

The answer is 10m/s

Explanation:

Given that the child is in the train, and that the train is moving at a speed of 10m/s, and also the child is standing on the flatbed, hence the child is not moving, therefore the velocity of the child is 10m/s relative to the observer

Also, when the child throws the ball horizontally relative to the observer the horizontal speed is also 10m/s.

therefore the speed of the ball is also 10m/s to the observer
