If you are in a car going 80 miles per hour, and a fly is flying around in your car,is the fly flying 80 miles
no, because the atmosphere inside the car is static and the fly can only go as fast as his wings will take him
apuleuis
no, because their speed is based on how fast they are flying within the air. The air in the car is not moving relative to the fly (unless the windows are open). Although I do think it would be funny to see a fly plastered to the back window.
Same is if you are walking in a moving bus, you know you are not walking at 80 mph.

no. the speed of the object in the car doesnt change, it is flying around in a space. it wouldnt matter how fast u were going
IceTrojan
Actually, relative to the outside world, the fly would probably be going slightly faster 80, or slight slower, if the fly is actually flying inside the car (like in a circle). The speeds are cumulative.
Oh, and flies can't hover, so it has to be traveling in some direction.

This is an example of relativity. Relative to the car, no. Relative to the road, yes.
imphilthe
no..he is flying around your car
Voice of Innovation
it is traveling at 80mph to the people outside the car

The air in the car is also moving 80 mph. The fly flies relative to the air in the car. The answer is no.
