Can buses move without air?
Open window buses without air-conditioning are a major mode of urban and inter-city transport in most countries. High occupancy combined with hot and humid conditions makes travel in these buses quite uncomfortable. Inside air velocity relative to the bus is about one-tenth of the free-stream velocity.
Are you still moving at the same velocity as the bus?
As long as the bus does not accelerate underneath you while you are in the air, there is no net force acting on you and thus you will remain at your current velocity, which is the same as that of the bus.
What happens if a large truck passes you at high speeds?
It is due to the wave of air generated by the truck as you pass each other. There is a large amount of air compressed by the front of the truck when it is moving at speed. The ends of this wave of air trail off on either side of the vehicle. Your vehicle is pushed away from the truck as you pass.
When you throw a ball in a moving car?
When a person throws a ball up in a moving vehicle, say, a train, the ball does come straight back to thrower as though the train were at rest. This is an iron-clad evidence for the law of inertia as the horizontal motion of ball before, during and after the catch is the same.
When I jump in a moving bus?
Changes in the speed or direction of motion of the object are included. As a result, jumping from a moving bus is dangerous since the jumping guy, who is moving at the bus’s high speed, will appear to stay in motion due to inertia even after falling to the ground, and will be injured due to the ground’s resistance.
Is walking faster than bus?
The long journey It seems obvious that the bus is much faster – but there’s much more to consider. People normally walk at least a quarter of a mile to and from the bus stop – that’s roughly ten minutes. The real toss up between walking and getting the bus is not really about how long it takes.
