When did you realize the real answer is B?
When did you realize the real answer is B?
I figured it was when the concept of a portal being pushed onto you crossed my mind years ago. Also why are we having so many of these threads at once?
What about this?
B, obviously. Retarded A fags actually believe the ball comes out at -1 m/s hahahahahaha.
I come into these threads and arbitrarily choose which side to support
based
the only scientifically accurate answer
explain how the cube would gain momentum
Wasn't this proved in the actual game using the engine? Its A
They can't.
Question for A-pes:
Does wind come out of the orange portal? Say the blue portal is falling at 100 km/hr.
Does 100 km/hr wind come out of the orange portal?
When it is halfway through the font half is must be moving as it's being pushed by the back half. that velocity can't just disappear, so it continues moving after completely exiting
C is actually pretty convincing
D. Give it to her.
Air isn't a solid object user.
Cube not having momentum on exit would mean every part of the cube not having momentum.
Every exiting part would therefore be remaining in place for the next part to exit into it, pushing it.
Answer the question.
A is more intuitive but if you do any real analysis you eventually run in to the fact that portals are impossibe in real life
Gravity is curvatures in spacetime.
So if space is getting warped there is most likely a very strong gravitational pull being enacted on the cube in the direction of where it is sent.
It exits Orange at the speed Blue is travelling up until the cube has travelled completely through the portal at which point the momentum belonging to the cube itself (it has none) takes over.
Actually, because it's a slanted surface, gravity takes over and the cube slides to the floor.
>her
cringe
That's a fucking cop out answer.
A is correct because it's like a bubble wand.
Doesn't matter how fast you swing the bubble wand the air inside doesn't accelerate.
I realized it was B the moment I imagined it in motion in detail. Obviously everyone considers the possibility of A at some point because of simple conservation laws, but once you see the problem it motion it is evident that the cube gains momentum/kinetic energy in the process.
On top of that, once you think about it in more depth, A leads to contradictions and really fucking messes that cause the destruction of the universe on the best of cases. Meanwhile you remember that portals in the game do change the momentum of the object relative to the environment, they give it energy, B results are consistent across variants and it generally works according to the game and how real life physics would apply as the object leaves the portal.
when did you realize that this whole problem is actually a non-problem and OP is a fag?
When is it a rule that objects passing through portals forget their own velocity? Isn't the entire premise of portal flinging built on the opposite of that?
B-tards think that if you drop a hula hoop over a basketball the basketball shoots up in the air on its own lol
>blue portal falls at 100 mph
>film orange portal
>see cube travelling through the orange portal at 100 mph
The momentum is imparted upon the cube by the orange portal. If the orange portal were affixed to a cart with wheels, it would also move back a bit as the cube is ejected from it.
This is just A logic with an added mistake since the cube would be at the bottom.
The cube gains nothing.
You would have been more convincing using the age all
>Hurrr if you look at the cube through the blue portal it is coming at you very fast!
No retard YOU are moving toward the cube fast.
Since when did the cube have velocity to "forget" you fucking retard?
>Also why are we having so many of these threads at once?
Shitposting reached critical mass and now we've got maybe another week of this shit before people tire out. At least this isn't the coin flip shit from the Soma threads because this is less frustrating.
>it is evident that the cube gains momentum/kinetic energy in the process.
And yet no one can explain how. This momentum on the cube comes out of nowhere
>Meanwhile you remember that portals in the game do change the momentum of the object relative to the environment, they give it energy,
They've never changed the momentum of an object.
>bubble wand
Ok that's a new one I'll give you that.
>Also why are we having so many of these threads at once?
happens every few months
bro i'm an Achad too but portals do change momentum (directionally) all the time, it's in like every puzzle
The question that destroyed A-fags forever
>No retard YOU are moving toward the cube fast.
Literally the same as the cube moving at you. For your relative velocities to change there has to be a force acting on one of you. Where's the force?
>Since when did the cube have velocity to "forget"
That's why I posted that image, to remind you that there's absolutely nothing keeping the cube from having one and you're forced to argue the cube has to forget its own velocity on traveling in order to maintain A's logic.
>A-pes think portals are "hula hoops"
momentum is never imparted *by* portals ever, objects maintain whatever momentum they had on entry. the cube positively has no momentum and arguing over "perspective" is like pinching the sun between your fingers and claiming it's tiny
We actually had multiple posted at the same time. But I kinda figured out it was because the original got locked so multiple people posted a continuation.
>(directionally)
user, that's gravity AFTER the object leaves the portal. That's not the portal itself slowing it down.
>b niggers still seething
A and B are both exaggerations. The real answer is somewhere in between. Like a 10% B
A, ball doesn't have enough velocity to pass through the portal, so its like hitting a wall
See Both options change the momentum of the ball. What possible situation maintains the ball's momentum?
>And yet no one can explain how. This momentum on the cube comes out of nowhere
This is something that the portal does. It is the one element in theproblem that is foreign to known physics. If known physics are "broken" at some point in the problem it will be as the cube is warped through the portal as according to B, not before or after as according to A.
>They've never changed the momentum of an object.
Learn about momentum. Portals do change the momentum of the object relative to enviroment in both Portal 1 and Portal 2. They only conserve momentum relative to their respective entry and exit.
When I saw this webm
If you think it's B you're either trolling or retarded, no other option.
The portals don't add momentum, if you even could put them on moving platforms.
But where does the force come from to stop the momentum? What gains the momentum lost by the ball?
This scenario C is just scenario A but not realizing the warpage of spacetime occurs in the link between the two portal openings.
... buddy I don't have a nobel prize or anything but have you ever taken a physics class? momentum is a vector quantity, which means direction matters. when you jump down into a portal and come flying up the other side that's a velocity/momentum change from -10 to 10 or whatever.
What about Both options change the momentum of the ball, so it has to be C. What happens? Explain in detail
Portal threads are ploy by the Jews to harness the gamer's natural understanding of space and time.
Do not fall for it bros.
This is the same question as what would happen if you were traveling at the speed of light and turned a flashlight on
Momentum dissipates on impact with the portal, which in this scenario acts as a wall, because the object does not have enough momentum to pass through the portal
>This is something that the portal does
It's not. There's no point in either game where a portal changed the momentum of an object coming from it.
>arguing over physics with Portal's portals
retards.
>Atard still doesn't get it
>the stuff on the right isnt moving by Afags definitions
Transfer of matter has to be consistent on both sides of portal yes? In order for the amount going in one end is the same that comes out the next?
So rate of entry/exit has to be the same, which means the speed of the portal itself is going to be a factor.
When I got irreparable brain damage. So never
This is just an animation of what A-fags believe. It doesn't prove shit. B-chads already understand the A-fag theory, so this webm is useless.
So does the wall gain momentum? It never touches the ball, how is the momentum transferred?
