Hahaha, funny answers. read below.

The wheels are not powered and they spin freely. You can move the treadmill any direction you like but since the plane uses air to move the treadmill would have to affect the air to stop it. Your way of thinking would mean that the runway would have to move with the plane for it to be able to take off. Hahaha

The treadmill has no effect at all on the planes movement, it's only in the question to throw off people that refuse to look beyond it, it's a trick question and you're the ones being tricked.

Thanks for entertaining me!

The point of this video is to prove that even if the wheels & treadmill were going 150kabillion miles per hour the AIRFRAME would go forward and gain lift to fly.
The wheels dont do crap....its the engines that make her go...

Heres another one....

wheel speed has nothing to do with it! Propulsion! Think about it. If wheel speed was a factor a pontoon airplane would never get out of the water!
another thing if wheel speed had anything to do with it as soon as the aircraft left the ground it would not continue to lift , because wheels slow to a stop after they
loose contact with the ground.

Jet and prop work exactly the same way. They both provide thrust.

The little kid in the video will probably have this hanging on his wall in a few years.

not exacly but yea on the thrust. prop can only go to about the speed of sound b4 they loss power and othere sutff.


and the Q.
all u have to do is imagine your self as the plane no matter what else happens u will not take of unless you get a certin air speed. planes differ. converyer does not effect that at all.

i know thex would get it cuz hes got a rc heli and would know how air work and put it together. i got a heli but not as good as his i am more into planes.

and kodiak i hate the pic. is called maintenance. just checking everything works because unlike a car u cant pull over and look under the hood. but u can fall stight to the ground.
