Will it take off?

no

/Thread

no it falls off

yes

Nope!

The air around the wings would remain still, regardless of the speed that the wheels on the plane were turning. Imagine lighting a candle and placing it on top of the plane in this image. Would the flame flicker just because the wheels are turning? No - there is no air movement.

When a plane takes off, the speed it is going is relative to the earth, moving THROUGH still air. The air moving across the top and bottom of the wings move different distances due to the shape of the wing, so air moving across the top of the wing has to travel farther in the same time. That reduces the press above the wing, creating upward thrust due to the higher pressure against the bottom of the wing.

Got it? Yay!

NOW FUCKING STOP SHITPOSTING

angelic dubs never lie

how can it take of if there is a fucking treadmill handlebar in the fucking way?

does anyone actually think it will take off? are people that dumb? just curious

DAMN!!!!! THEM QUADS!!!!!

This is the correct answer, the wheels spin independently of the engines, unlike a car.

Back with this was new bait, yes.

No it won't. The thrust would compensate for the dragging back but the plane would not fly either, because the plane would not move and hence no lift would be generated

Didn't understand. Can u pls explain in detail?

>Will it take off?

You're a fucking moron. THINK of how an airfoil works.

The thrust of the engines will cause the treadmill to take off, while the plane remains on the treadmill

U belong in a threatmill

Take off what?

Of course it would take off. The takeoff speed of a jetliner is around 150–180 mph. The max speed of most treadmills are around 12 mph. At worse case, the speed of the jetliner would have to be 12 mph faster to compensate for the treadmill, but that's no real different then it having to adjust speed for tailwinds, etc. This all assumes that the treadmill and jet are to scale (and you'd need a runway size treadmill). The real problem you have would be the wings clearing the uprights. With a considerably long treadmill, its possible the climb will clear the uprights BEFORE the wings shear off, but maybe not.

Take the drag coefficient of that material of the treadmill, calculate speed it would need to generate enough wind to create lift traveling past wing, technically it's possible it could take off but the speed of the treadmill would have to be ridiculous.

/solved

no, the plane will hit that fucking Exercise Machine
