Is the frame of reference for movement the box or the orange portal


This morning, Cum went to the park. I went with Coom. And Cum brought Coomer frisbee. At least I think it was Coomers. By the end of the day, Cum started throwing the frisbee to Cumself.

Box is on a pillar, portal is on a piston

Well that makes it B since the box conserves its kinetic energy and movement vector.

If the box is still, A since it has no energy.

All in all this is just a stupid question due to ambiguity and rules not being set for how the portal works.

Edit: Im r-slur I read that as box is on a piston

B if frame of reference for “still” is the orange portal

A if frame of reference for “still” is the box

Either way, stupid question

Wrong lmaoooo, it's always B.

"Frame of reference" is not a physical property, it's an imaginary property that you use to make math easier. Any result that differs depending on frame of reference is inconsistent with reality.

I just thought of a related thought experiment to help those who don't seem to get it. What's happening to the air between the orange portal and the box? Is it going through the portal? If it is then what's the airflow like on the other end? It can't be still because every second more air is coming through the portal. This column of air cannot be still despite the fact that it was just a second prior.

YIKES It's obviously b lmaooooo. :marseyxd:

Momentum is completely relative and a simple change to the frame of reference would have the cube moving and the portal stationary.

Unequivocal proof that the majority of dramatards are unironically low IQ and probably never passed a physics course. Anyone voting A should pretty much just delete right now, because anyone having an argument with you only need link back to this thread to win.

What happens if instead of slamming the entire cube through it suddenly stops part way? Does the kinetic energy from the second frame lift the box in A through the portal?

Jump in the discussion.

No email address required.

Yes, the box would get partial momentum.

Just think of it like this: a Cube is actually made out of many many little Cubes, lets call them "molecules".

Since there's no reason a little Cube and a big Cube would act differently, you can reason that each time a little Cube passes through it gets its own momentum delta.

The difference besides size, is all the little Cubes are stuck together with a glue, let's call that glue "inter-molecular bonds".

What happens when you impart momentum on an object, and it's glued to another object?

Honestly there probably is a speed/amount-through-the-portal ratio that would result in the entire cube moving through the portal even if the piston suddenly stopped.

You do. You choose the frame of reference that makes math easier. But whichever frame you choose, you end up with the same result. "Frame of reference" is not a physical property.

I really love Portao trials, except the fricking least steps, I HATE least steps :purerage:

Option A is correct because in both cases the cube has no momentum relative to the frame of reference. Imagine the shortest straight line between the starting position of the cube X and the position at the edge of the blue portal Y. This line passes through the orange portal. When the portal "moves" the line is contracting rather than the cube traveling along it. The space cannot contract more when X=Y, which creates the illusion of motion and stopping that has people confused.

Consider a different thought experiment entirely possible in the game. The orange portal begins on the piston, but instead of the piston moving down, the portal is reopened at the location of the cube. If you treat portals as moving objects, it should be the same distance traveled. But in this situation does the cube get launched out of the portal? No, it maintains its lack of momentum.

How can the distance between two objects change if there's no motion involved?

Jump in the discussion.

No email address required.

Because the geometry of space doesn't have to be fixed. For example, think of drawing two dots on a balloon and then inflating it. The dots' position on the balloon is fixed, but the distance between them increases as the balloon expands or it will decrease as it contracts. In a similar way our universe is expanding and this appears as though distant galaxies are moving away from us, but this apparent motion doesn't follow the same rules as motion in space does, like how it can be faster than the speed of light.

Apply your question to portals on the walls of a room. Before and after the portals open, hasn't the shortest distance between stationary objects in that room changed? This is also a change in geometry.

When you slam an open window :marseysickos2: down around something said object doesn't magically propel itself

Jump in the discussion.

No email address required.

as soon as you enter the portal, you are on the other side.

so when you move a step closer to the portal, its as if you take a step closer to the objects that are on the other side of the portal. Most portals in science fiction work by warping the space, further supporting this view

so I would conclude that its more like the window, plus the room are slammed down around something. If you are in space empty and somebody throws a room at you and you fall into it through the window, there is no possible way to tell if were thrown into the room or if the room is thrown at you. The result is the same: you propell against the wall

Everyone is overthinking it. The portal operates essentially like a door frame does if it came at you very fast and passed over you without ever touching you, then you would experience any force at all.

but "movement" means nothing. Moving relative to what?

Unless you mean, portals can't move relative to each other once they're both placed (which has meaning).

If the portal was static and the cube was moving the answer would be the same.
