(07:54:44 PM) Janna: Question
(07:54:53 PM) Janna: You good at classical mechanics?
(07:55:02 PM) Janna: I need a term
(07:55:20 PM) Me: Classical mechanics? Dunno
(07:55:24 PM) Janna: Okay..
(07:55:27 PM) Janna: et me splain.
(07:55:29 PM) Janna: let
(07:55:45 PM) Janna: You know when something hits your car... like... a pebble hits your windshield
(07:55:55 PM) Janna: and it bounces off, right
(07:56:32 PM) Janna: and you, because you're moving.. keep going forward and the object is hurtled backward at a higher rate because of that
(07:56:40 PM) Janna: WHAT IS THAT CALLED???
(07:56:48 PM) Janna: Liner motion?
(07:56:55 PM) Janna: Momentum?

 

[22:57] Me: Gonna ask spanky... relate it to guns... or something.

 

(08:00:26 PM) Janna: dammit... he's not answering. fucking asshole

(07:56:32 PM) Janna: and you, because you're moving.. keep going forward and the object is hurtled backward at a higher rate because of that

Are you sure that happens?

So youre saying if you are going east 50mph, and a pebble gets thrown at your windshield going west at 20mph from a car kicking it up...the pebble will bounce off your windshield and head east at a rate more than 50 mph or 20 mph?

 

Seemingly at a higher rate. Maybe I didn't explain it right. It's more from the perception of your rate of speed. Your forward motion. But is that perception referred to as anything?

:crazyr:
I think I just confused myself.
