Why do mosquitoes fly in trains?

Friction and air drag both act due to relative velocity and when you are in the train cabin with closed windows , both the air and the mosquito are moving at 120km/ph so there is no friction /air drag and hence the mosquito can fly normally .

What happens if you jump in a moving train?

When moving with the train, the speed of the train is your speed. You are in the same frame of inertia. When you jump in the train, you do not encounter air resistance, and you usually encounter little to no force and there is no change in your speed. Because the speed of the train is the same as your speed.

How can you jump in a train and land in the same spot?

Yes because if the train is moving at 100km per hour. That means you are moving at that speed. So when you jump your still moving at that same speed with the train which will make you land on the same spot.

How do flies fly in a train?

If the train is moving with a constant velocity, the fly will feel as if it inside a stationary room. The reason for the fly hitting the wall is Pseudo Force. This Pseudo Force is the same force which you experience when you are travelling in an accelerating car which forces you into your seat.

How much force does a train hit with?

First, a force of 2 to 5 pounds per ton of train weight is required to move on straight level track. At very slow yard speeds only 2 to 3 pounds is needed while increasing to about 5 pounds at higher speeds. This force is required to overcome bearing friction, rail deflection, minor flange contact, etc.

What happens when a fly enters your nose?

It might get caught in the fine nose hairs (vibrissae), which usually act as the nostril’s first line of defense against dust or particulates. “It may then basically turn into a booger and come out or get picked out later!” she says.

What speed do flies fly at?

The common housefly has a maximum flying speed of five miles per hour… even though its wings beat 20 thousand times per minute. The fly has four thousand separate lenses in each eye – eight thousand in all – providing wide angle vision which is in fact omnidirectional.

Is jumping on a moving train illegal?

Train hopping, sometimes referred to as freight hopping, is against the law in all US states. Homeless hobos, immigrant workers, mostly from South America, and thrill-seeking US citizens surreptitiously all hitch rides, despite the increased use of electronic surveillance and tightened security around rail yards.
