I'm thinking this question had to been asked before, but I did a search and couldn't find anything on it. It's really bugging me, because I never could find out the right answer.
Suppose you have a jet airplane sitting on a runway. But this runway acts like a treadmill. The jet starts it's thrusters and for every mile an hour the Jet's wheels move forward, the treadmill moves a mile an hour in the opposite direction.
Will this jet eventually take off? Thanks.
