उत्तर
Yes, the balls will start rolling in the direction in which the train was moving. This is because, after applying the brakes, the train comes to rest but the balls continue to move due to inertia. Since the masses of the balls are different and hence the inertial forces, the balls will move at different speeds. An iron ball that is heavier than the rubber ball will move with a lower speed.
