Question

my question is that if we fly a plane in earths atmosphere and keep it there for 1-2 months. will the position of plane will change due to rotation of earth and revolution of earth around sun and after some time the plane will falls in the vaccumed space. or it will moves with the earth.
if know the answer the only tell...…..

Answer 1

The reason an airplane can't just idle and let the ground pass underneath is the same reason as why a ball dropped from a tall tower lands at the base of the tower and not next to it. A plane sitting on the ground is moving with the surface of the Earth, and while it appears to us to be at rest, it is actually moving at around 1,000 miles an hour (the exact value depends on your latitude). When it takes off, it still has speed from sitting on the ground. In order to fly east, the plane increases its speed relative to the surface of the Earth and begins to overtake it. Flying west it decreases its speed relative to the surface of the Earth, and the Earth slips by.
