Thanks for the reply!
So if I jump straight up then I will land further back relativ to skateboard but further forward relativ to ground? If so is that because the jump directly up is somewhat (depending on slope of hill) in opposite direction to direction of skateboards travel where as jumping...
Yes vertically against gravity while keeping downhill speed constant (it being tricky to jump vertically without accelerating the skateboard we can ignore for this question). Skateboard & I are going downhill at constant speed when I jump up.
Hi,
I understand the mechanics of jumping straight up and landing on the same spot when inside of a moving bus traveling at a constant velocity but what happens when I jump straight up when skateboarding downhill? Do I land on the same spot on the skateboard, do I land further back relative to...
