here's a gravity one

-------------------------------------------------------------------

if youre standing in a bus at the front next to the driver

> and the bus is travelling at 40mph

> you then take a jump (directly upwards)

do you? :

a: land in the same place you jumped from

b: end up somewhere further towards the middle/rear of the bus because it was moving?

-------------------------------------------------------------------

sense or confusion i do not know as i have never tried it and am not a physicist
rest assured someone will know the answer, or will go and try it out to find out the answer



p.s. i know that you should stay seated whilst the bus is in motion, but in this case there will be an exception for scientific reason
