Because Avogadro has sucked yet another poor soul into his "Let's have a circular argument over the tines point of contention" trap.

it would work only half as funky as light works in a spaceship that travels at twice the speed of light

"My question stands, how would light in a spaceship work when traveling at lightspeed"

Aro, because the spaceship is it's own frame of reference. The people in the spaceship can just as validly say they are stationary and are watching Earth travel away from them at the speed of light, so how does light work on Earth?

Light is also special in that the speed of light is constant to all observers in all frames of reference. i.e. if a spaceship is travelling at the speed of light and shines a light out of the front, the speed of that light will be measured as c by both the people in the spaceship and the observer on Earth.

Unfortunately Pixies, I don't find fluid mechanics nearly interesting enough to even bother to look up the relation between flow speed and cross section So total guess, 666 x 4!

what will the new velocity of the bee be?

what would the bee be, being that the bee is a being that is beezy with minding his own beezwax

-_-..as no one is going to give it a real go, the answer is:

1224kmph or 340m/s

One explanation:

dA/A = (M^2 - 1)*(dV/V)

Cross sectional area = A
Velocity = V
Mach number = M

As dA/A is negative (we're looking at a converging nozzle),
and dV/V is positive (velocity of fluid will increase with convergence),
the value of (M^2 - 1) must be negative - or limiting towards 0.

Therefore the answer is M=1, which is the speed of sound which we assume by default is at sea level = 340m/s = 1224kmph.

>Imagine air is flowing in and along a pipe at 666kmph, and a bee is caught in this airflow. Assume that the bee will always travel at the same velocity of the airflow. If the pipe's diameter of 2X reduces to X so as to accelerate the air as cleanly as possible, what will the new velocity of the bee be? And I'd like an explanation.

>-_-..as no one is going to give it a real go, the answer is:

1224kmph or 340m/s

Wrong! There are two possible outcomes:

A) The new diameter of the pipe is smaller then the bee. The bee will get stuck. It's fat behind means it's velocity is zero.

B) Your use of 666 has called the anti-christ. The world has now ended. Armageddon destroyed the pipe and killed the bee. It's velocity is zero.
