you are on the airplane, about to fly to an exotic location. How do acceleration, speed and inertia work to overcome the forces of gravity and air resistance during the take-off?

Make a paper airplane and have him toss it. his arm would be the thrust, the wings would provide lift, the shape of it would minimize drag (air resistance). However, if he put an engine on the same airplane, it would do the same thing as your arm would do.

So thrust, lift, shape Inertia is just a by product of the force that pushing you into your seat.

explanation:

speed of light in vacuum is 300,000 km/s

speed of light in other mediums is given by the expression v = c/n, where c is the speed of light in vacuum and n is the refractive index of medium.

for the first medium v = 200,000 km/s

  so, refractive index of medium = 300000/200000 = 1.5

    1.5 refractive index is usually for glass. so first medium is glass.

for the second medium v = 250,00 km/s

so, refractive index of medium = 300000/250000 = 1.2

    1.2 refractive index is usually for water. so second medium is water.

for the third medium v = 0 km/s

so, refractive index of medium = 300000/0 = ∞

    ∞ refractive index is usually for opaque mediums. so third medium is opaque medium.
