Explanation / Answer

a)

back in the hand

when the car is moving at constant speed , the egg also has the same constant speed in horizontal direction and hence travels same distance as travelled by the car . so egg lands back in our hands

b)

increasing in speed :

as the egg is launched , the egg moves with a speed equal to initial speed of car at the time of launch. since the car is speeding up , hence the car travels a larger distance as compared to the egg moving at constant speed. hence the egg lands behind

c)

decreasing in speed :

as the egg is launched , the egg moves with a speed equal to initial speed of car at the time of launch. since the car is decelerating , hence the car travels a smaller distance as compared to the egg moving at constant speed. hence the egg lands in front.
