EF Intelligence vs. another chat board I post on

[-SD-]

This (trick) question was posted in the "general" section of another forum that I frequent. It has turned into a very long thread. Lets see how everyone here stacks up against the moronic posts that littered the other forum.

"Let's say you have a single engine airplane sitting on a runway that is 3000 feet long, and through some great engineering the runway is actually a giant treadmill. It's engineered so that when the plane starts to move forward the runway moves in the opposite direction at exactly the same speed., i.e. as the airplane's wheels pick up speed the runway matches it.
Will the plane get airborne?"

 

[PICK3]

no

This invalidates Bernoulli's equation as an explanation for the aerodynamic lift.

 

[borris]

way 2 :blazed: right now bro


*waits for Samuff*

 

[borris]

Doesn't alot of air have to be passing between the wings to take off flight? Wouldn't having a plane on a tredmill cancel that out since it is just rolling on still air?

 

[Big Rick Rock]

I just went to my neighbor's house and tested this. The answer is NO.

 

[MichaelScott]

i can see why this was never brought up b4, whay if you are driving the speed of light and you turn on your headlights will they shine

 

[stilleto]

no.
the wheels would be spinning like mad, but spinning wheels do not an airborne plane make.

 

[MichaelScott]

nice

If this guy can get the answer right then Ive heard enough.
EF=astronomically more intelligent than that other board.

Ummmh ... who posted the correct answer first?

you arent blazzzzzed.
Unless being a 'mo lowers your IQ more than being blazed, then you would get credit.

even the woman got it right. hot damn

 

[Smurfy]

I just went to my neighbor's house and tested this. The answer is NO.

I just asked my husband and he said its not a complete question. What kind of power is the plane using>? Is it using its engine or just its wheels?

 

[PICK3]

But if you're in the elevator on the 80th floor of a high rise and the cable breaks ... can you jump a milisecond before it hits bottom and save yourself?

 

[KillahBee]

skateboard wheels

 

[Smurfy]

skateboard wheels

well in that case the answer is no.

What did you hear from Mossberg? Or is your replacement rifle in the cargo hold of said plane?

 

[KillahBee]

well in that case the answer is no.

nope, i nthat case the answer is "put the fucking wheels back in the fucking closet before I kill you!!!!"

No, Myth Busters tested it and the dummy would have plummeted to its death. As for the airplane thing, I'm pretty sure that the movement of air is required for the plane to take off.

wheels are free standing, meaning the just roll over the ground when the engine thrust is applied to the plane. This still doesnt matter though, think about it.

the cut me a check, which i got today. i sure as hell dont want another product from them.

im not thinking about it another second. you cant make me. now go get me some ice cream

I cant, Im on a treadmill and no matter how fast I run I cant move forward to the kitchen.

 

[Smurfy]

fine then i will roll my fat ass sideways over to the freezer and get it myself (aka tell my husband to do it)

thanks

yabbut you forget that i'm smarter than most of the men here.

I'm gonna have to go ahead and ask lumberg to look up bernoulli's principle.

Then I am going to ask him to show me a single-engine plane with a drive train to the wheels.

While you are at it, bitch-slap him for me.

This was going to be my plan if that ever happened to me.

i just bitch slapped him in the face with my cock.
are we straight now?

Hmmm, did he squeal and make you a sammich?

 

[Smurfy]

no but he moaned and then offered me his Moose Tracks ice cream (i dont fucking like that kind) so I kicked him square in the nutz

 

[stilleto]

Is not.

so am.


TIMES INFINITY.
































































































































plus one.

 

[borris]

What about if the plane had a rocket engine and the plane was slightly tilted upward on the runway? that could be possible

 

[mountain muscle]

Only if the pilot flapped his arms really hard too...

 

[borris]

with a Harrier Jet plane it's possible

youre smoking too much rob. engine is parallel to ground/treadmill

Harriers are not single engine. Try again.

http://www.air-attack.com/page/41/AV-8-Harrier.html

http://www.britannica.com/bps/topic...tle=Harrier -- Britannica Online Encyclopedia

The AV-8B Harrier is a high performance, single-engine, single-seat, Vertical/Short Take-off and Landing (V/STOL) attack aircraft. It was introduced to the Fleet Marine Forces (FMF) in January 1985 after a successful prototype demonstration and Full Scale Development Program. Consistent with the long-standing Marine Corps vision of attaining an all V/STOL amphibious force, the AV-8B replaced both the A-4M and AV-8A/C -- the light attack portion of the Marine Tactical Aircraft (TACAIR) force.


ouch

Nice find. My bad.

I was considering the intakes and and variable exhaust ports used for VTOL.

Not really, he had to look it up.

Besides, I can fly the plane, he can't.

damn, beat me to it!

You can fly the Harrier?

I had a friend who flew those.

Nope. They tried this one out on Mythbusters.
