Go to Post What I would really love to see is having the teams try to solve a problem that is real scientists are trying to solve right now. Wouldn't it be cool if a team came up with a robot design that could solve one of the world's worst problems? Talk about FIRST publicity! - Beth Sweet [more]

Can the Plane Take-Off?

Quote:
"A plane is standing on a runway that can move (some sort of band conveyer). The plane moves in one direction, while the conveyer moves in the opposite direction. This conveyer has a control system that tracks the plane speed and tunes the speed of the conveyer to be exactly the same (but in the opposite direction).

The question is:

Will the plane take off or not? Will it be able to run up and take off?"
there's a 988 post arguement going on in this other forum... im pretty positive about the answer... (there is technically no true answer till someone experiments... and many people will argue that they need proof. only proof possible would be by experiment... and so far i know of noone who has done an experiment)
and please dont turn this into a flame war.... as has happened in the other forum. i mean for this to be amusing. ill post what i think a bit later after a couple posts have been made so i wont give any ideas from the 988 post wisdom i have lol. or you can pm me and ill answer what i think.

have fun!
