Would an object hovering inside a flying aeroplane, finally end up at the back of the plane?

Answer 1

no, because all object inside a plane are travelling at the same velocity.

and as Nice says above, they would actually go to the front if i understand corretly the logic your trying to apply.

Answer 2

Since the object is hovering, no it would not. The air inside the plane is moving with the plane itself, in the same direction & at the same speed (thus essentially the same velocity). A hovering object would thus maintain its relative position inside the plane. It's rather like the old theory that a bullet fired from a rifle inside a plane flying at twice the speed of a rifle bullet would actually come out backwards & kill the shooter. The speed of the bullet is relative to the gun, not to the ground, just as the (zero) speed of the hovering object is relative to the plane.

Answer 3

This depends a lot on the movement of the plane. If the plane is accelerating then the hovering object would move to the back, if the plane was decelerating then the hovering object would move to the front, if the plane was flying at constant velocity, or not speeding up or slowing down then the hovering object would remain in the same place. This is because of newtons 1st law of motion, an object at rest will remain at rest until a force acts on it, and an object in motion will remain in motion unless a force acts on it. The hovering object does not have any force acting on it so it will try to move with the same velocity nomatter what the plane does.

Answer 4

It depends on when the object starts hovering. If it starts hovering at the gate, then the object will end up in the front or the back or the side, depending on which way the plane taxis. If it starts hovering during takeoff, it will end up in the back of the plane rather quickly. And if it starts hovering in the middle of the flight, it will stay right where it is--until the airplane turns or starts descending, in which case it will float to the side or the top.

You can make more sense of this by looking up something called the four fundamental forces of flight. Learn how they change as a plane maneuvers, paying particular attention to the fact that straight and level flight is said to be "unaccelerated."

Answer 5

when an object hovers relative to a point in the fuselage , it will not end up at the back of the plane. But if it hovers about random points : it will end up at the back. Because at particular time(t) moment(m) its position in space remains constant while the plane moves .

Answer 6

Granting that this object did not appear via teleportation or apparation, this means that it was on the floor or in your hand just before it was "hovering." Which means it was actually traveling at the same speed as the plane.
So no, it will not end up at the back of the plane.

Answer 7

if the aeroplane is travelling at a constant velocity, then the object will not move. However, if the aeroplane accelerates, the object will move towards the back, and if the plane decelerates, the object will move to the front.

Answer 8

Only if it got caught in the air flow from the air conditioner and got pushed there. Or a passenger pushes it. Or the aircraft abruptly changes its velocity. WIthin the interior of the aircraft at constant velocity , the object is protected from the key force that would cause it to change its position relative to the rest of the plane, that is the friction from the atmosphere. If you opened the cockpit window and the cockpit door, and a rear window or door, you'd see that object move backward in a jiffy!

Answer 9

No

An object that is traveling in a plane is traveling at the speed of the plane. If you toss the object up then it will fall normally, relative to you, as if you were on the ground; because, everything in the plane shares the same speed.

Now if you through the ball up into the air and the plane suddenly turns then the ball will hit the side of the cabin because it still has the original direction of travel acting on it.

This hints at Einstein’s Special Theory of Relativity. To the observer on the plane the ball is going pretty slow, but to the observer on the ground the ball is going quite fast. It all depends on your frame of reference.

Answer 10

No it would just hover because its traveling at the same speed as the plane
