Airplane on a Conveyor Belt
I loved your analogy of the airport walkway and the rollaboard. I hadn't thought of that one. While we really shouldn't be discussing the myth itself on the talkpage, I think that is an excellent example to keep for future reference. I just don't understand why there are so many people who can't grasp the concept that an aircraft engine doesn't drive the wheels. -- Aussie Legend  ( ✉ ) 08:38, 18 August 2014 (UTC)


 * : Thanks! Some stick to the belief that the conveyor belt "at matched speed" can keep the airplane from moving even after they say "yes, I know the engine doesn't drive the wheels." I have found that the rollaboard analogy works on a lot of disbelievers. I broke the NOTFORUM rule in hopes that it would work on the OP of that thread and that he would then drop his argument.

 * : Here is another model: Put a roller skate on a small conveyor belt. To the front of the skate tie a string, attached to a force gauge, in turn attached to a fixed support beyond. Roll the belt away from the support at 1 foot/sec and adjust lengths of strings, etc., so the skate stays on top of the belt. Of course the skate will stay stationary (unless you have very weak string). You will measure a small force on the gauge; this is the force of rolling friction. You will find that varying the belt speed changes the reading on the gauge only slightly - the force of rolling friction does not depend on rotation speed (any more than the force of sliding friction depends on speed; that is just not a factor in the formula). Now roll the belt at 1 foot/sec again, grab the string, and pull the skate opposite the direction of the belt's movement at 1 foot/sec. The skate will move at 1 foot/sec! The airplane does not have to counteract the speed of the belt. It only has to counteract the force of rolling friction - which is little different from the case without the belt (unless the belt makes the wheels turn so fast as to cause bearing failure). It would be the same if forward force was applied to the skate by a motor and propellor mounted on it. Jeh (talk) 03:32, 19 August 2014 (UTC)
 * Yes, that's a good one too. -- Aussie Legend  ( ✉ ) 08:22, 19 August 2014 (UTC)

Please do not attack other editors, as you did on Talk:Magnifier (Windows). Comment on content, not on contributors. Personal attacks damage the community and deter users. Please stay cool and keep this in mind while editing. Thank you. Dogmaticeclectic (talk) 07:22, 23 August 2014 (UTC)


 * Ah yes, the inevitable templating from Dog'E'. Didn't you claim you'd seen the light, turned a new leaf, and would mend your ways? The content of your comment was ridiculous, and "dogmatic" is your label for yourself - own it. Jeh (talk) 07:31, 23 August 2014 (UTC)


 * That sounds very much like an admission of Baiting on your part... especially given that you attacked me not once but (at least) twice at that page. Dogmaticeclectic (talk) 07:33, 23 August 2014 (UTC)


 * *sigh* That sounds very much like a WP:BATTLEGROUND attitude on your part. Your assumption of "attacks", and your response, are that also. I don't think I was personally attacking you, rather pointing out obvious problems in what you wrote. Nor was I baiting you. If you think you have a valid complaint on either basis, your next step would be to ask for a 3PO, because I will not respond to you further here; it will clearly not be productive, nor helpful to the encyclopedia. If you have any responses that are actually on point, please post them to the ongoing discussion at the article talk page. Jeh (talk) 07:57, 23 August 2014 (UTC)
