    Youre not and mythbusters kinda proved this. They shot a ball at 50km/h in one direction while driving in the other, also at 50km/h. The ball stayed in place because they were no longer in contact and their frame of reference is no longer the same and they deal with their own resistances and speed. This means that yes, the diver would lag behind. Maybe not as far as in the comic, depending on car speed, but he would be behind the spot he left on


  • Thanks for that! Helped understand it a bit more, i think. So its a case of it not working on irrational numbers, its just that we cant prove it because we cant calculate the multiplication of 2, right? Somehow, my mind has issues with the e*pi = ke. Id say that ke = e * pi is impossible because k is an integer and pi isnt, no? It could never be equals, i think.


  • Before i ask my question, know that my math is all the way in the back of my head and i didnt get too far in math at school.

    Wdym irrational numbers dont work? -3 * -pi would be the same as 3*pi, no?
    I always assumed if all factors of the multiplication are negative, it results in the same as the positive variant, no matter the numbers ( real, fractal, irrational, … )
