Wait I thought planes wheels were motorised. Can't they taxi even if the jet engines are not working?

I realise that they use the jet engines to take off ofc

I just tied toast to the back of a cat butter side out then put it on the plane and dropped it. Let me tell you that plane took off at literal light speed.

I didn't tip it though and ate it well done with beans.

the wheel bearings are designed to have the smallest amount of friction possible, so you ignore them for the sake of the thought experiment. otherwise you just start debating things like "well we can't even make a conveyor belt strong enough to support a jet airliner anyway" and end up stuck down the stupid hole

Well the problem is so often stated (poorly, perhaps) in terms of a conveyor belt that CAN stop a plane, so you're fighting against the very premise of the question. Under that premise, the plane can't take off.

I agree that any reasonable, realistic plane and conveyor would be unable to fulfill that premise, and would take off. But it's completely reasonable and not stupid to say "well if the problem posits a non-moving plane, then I guess it ain't taking off", and what annoys me about this debate is that your side of the argument completely ignores this.

That's why I said earlier that both sides are correct about their answers, but they're answering different questions. And then they assume the other side is stupid and condescend to them and call them names.

If you ignore friction then the wheels would slide infinitely over the surface of the conveyor belt anyway so the whole problem wouldn't work.

oh hell yea we're doin this

it's a flawed premise. there is no such thing as a conveyor belt that can stop a jet airplane in the manner described. end statement. it doesn't matter if the belt is going backwards at 1000 miles an hour; if the plane's engines are producing enough thrust to move it forwards at 100mph, it will do so, and the wheels will be spinning 1100mph backwards. in reality, if such a thing occurred, the tires would explode from the overspeed and the landing gear struts would dig into the belt and the plane would get flung backwards and not take off -- but that's obviously not what the question is asking.

saying "okay but what if there was a conveyor belt that stopped the plane from moving, then what?" reduces the question to absurdity, like asking "would a plane take off if a wizard projected an impenetrable force field in front of it?"

If you were at an airport to catch a conveyor belt plane, and walking along you see one of those moving sidewalks. It's going the wrong way (towards you), but just for fun you walk alongside it on stable ground and pull your wheelie luggage along the moving sidewalk in the wrong direction. If it's going 10 mph the wrong way do you have to run 10 mph forward to pull the bag? Or are the wheels just freespinning bits of rubber so it will move at the same speed as before (albeit the wheels are spinning much faster)?
