If you put the truck on a conveyor belt traveling at 51.3 FPS in the opposite direction of the truck, and stuck your arm out the window , would you be able to feel the wind?

They would weigh the same.

Now, if you asked this:
Which weighs more, a ton of feathers or a ton of gold?

Then they wouldn't weigh the same,
as gold is measured by Troy Ounces, feathers regular old ounces.

If your in an enclosed semi trailer standing near the front going down the highway at 65 mph and jump up in the air will you get slammed by the back door of the trailer. because that truck is still moving at 65mph underneath you when you jump

i hope the means you are joking. if you jump in a trailer going 65mph, you are also moving 65 mph. you will land in the same spot you jumped from. its called inertia, homey
