@mimiandfin: I found this question quite interesting so thought id clarify people’s questions in the comments with a video @pilotresco #aviation #boeing #aircraft
only if there is a tremendous head wind , it's air speed that generates lift

The riddle says that the conveyor belt matches the speed of the wheels, not the entire aircraft

jh217c :
you are misunderstanding the original question, the conveyer belt would go in the opposite direction to what you said. the plane would stay stationary and no lift would be created

Quinn Demerchant :
The plane is stationary, doesn’t move at all. Plane can not take off because the air speed is 0

I can’t believe how so many people can’t wrap their heads around this concept 😂😂

Adamthescientist :
The plane itself is stationary, with no airflow over the wings. Without airflow over the wings it will not take off, regardless of what the engines or anything else is doing.

I feel so sorry for you having to keep making videos explaining this easy to understand concept

The conveyor wouldn’t spin the way you say, it says opposite direction, you have them both spinning anti clockwise

I see exactly what your saying now, the wheels are just there, the jets move it. I didn't even think about that.

The question says the conveyor moves in the ‘opposite direction’ though, so would it not be the case that the plane remains stationary?

Matches the speed on the opposite direction so there is no air moving under the wing as it’s stationary

Robbie :
Please explain how the wheels are moving at twice the speed of the airframe? Are you staying the wheels are not joined to the aircraft? Because they are and if the airframe is moving at x velocity the

when have you seen a plane flying, in one spot....like a helicopter...test this with a paper airplane

the plane just go forward ignoring the conveyor belt...

stowee :
imagine the wheels and conveyor belt as skids on ice...its just a frictionless...its the engines that pull the plane through the air, so sure the plane will take off....

You are impossibly out to lunch it’s a thought experiment no need for clip art. It won’t take off

Dillon :
It’s says in the opposite direction meaning it will act like a running machine the plan stays still the whole time it doesn’t move you think it will move that is wrong
