Will the trajectory of a student who left home and returned home be closed
Will the trajectory of a student who left home and returned home be closed, if we consider his movement relative to the plane, which during this time flew from Moscow to Kazan?
Let the student be at home a few kilometers from the plane at the beginning of the flight. By the end of the flight, he will again be at home, but at a distance of about 712 km from the plane, that is, at a point different from the initial one. Moving to school and back has little effect on the trajectory as a whole — it will look more like a straight line rather than a closed curve.
Examples of a closed path relative to an aircraft:
– The passenger got up, walked around the cabin and returned to his seat.
– Another plane took off on a different route and landed nearby.
Answer: the trajectory of the student will not be closed.
