>metaphysically

WTF my life was a lie all along.

nice edited physics bro, here's the REAL answer

Neither, moving portals aren't a thing

You're retarded.

Portal technology is certainly metaphysically possible, thats how we made a game about it. It's not (real physics) physically possible though, which is why it doesnt exist in reality.

So when are we discovering portals IRL

That's B logic.

The cube has to move out of the blue portal as quickly as it is moving into the orange portal. When the orange portal has consumed 99.999% of the cube, the 99.999% of the cube that's left the blue portal is moving at the same speed the orange portal is. When the orange portal covers that last hair's length, you're imply all this momentum in the 99.999% of the cube that has already passed through the portal just goes away?

The answer will also be that there is no answer because portals break down fundamental ideas in physics. The frame of reference for the object's movement includes itself, nothing works.

someone emailed a valve dev on this, they responded and said A. works

keked pretty hard

>which is why it doesnt exist in reality.
yet

Most people said B to troll people who said A and also laugh at brainlets who agreed with them

>yet
No
An object moving in relation to itself is not fucking possible.

there is an answer, and it is neither A nor B, and you really have no idea what metaphysical means.

Imagine if the orange portal descended very slowly. That would mean that the cube would materialize through the blue portal very slowly, at the same rate as the orange portal's descent. The leading edge of the cube necessarily must have some velocity in the direction away from the blue portal, for it must, to make room for the rest of the cube.

The slower the descent, the slower the cube would inch forward through the blue portal, thus we can see the velocity of the cube as it exits the blue portal is EQUAL to the velocity of the descending orange portal. Equally so, the faster the orange portal descended, the faster the leading edge of the cube must make room for the rest of it behind it. Thus, the answer is obviously B, the cube has a velocity equal to the orange portal and would fly out.

the cube isnt moving, the portal is

The blue portal moving down is akin to the entire universe being moved around around the cube. Once the blue portal is fully slammed onto the cube and comes to a stop, the cube would immediately move forward with the same velocity that the portal was moving at. Whether the universe is moving onto the cube or the cube is moving through the universe is relative, we being outside of the interaction have a different reference frame which is split into two very different and impossible frames via the portals.

If you disagree or don't understand, you are a shriveled walnut brain.

>wojakposter can't form coherent sentences
color me surprised

it is "entering" the orange at the oranges speed

>"objects"
the atom of the cube that has exited blue is not on the orange side anymore

nope, you're braindead or trolling. byebye

The atom is still moving in relation to its fucking self just by moving relative an open set of portals.

After thinking for a few minutes about this thought experiment, my conclusion is the same as

there is no "speed". the portal itself has no momentum, and neither has the cube
