In summary, the conversation is about a theoretical situation involving a plane with a block against each wheel, preventing it from moving. The person is asking for help in understanding how the situation would depend on the materials of the wheel, block, and floor, and what would happen if the block is raised just enough for the wheel to touch it. The person also apologizes for their English and mentions a link that is not working.

I have some theoretical questions that I can not answer for a proper understanding of the situation... Can you help me please?

We have a system - a wheel of a plane and a block http://fykos.cz/rocnik26/obrazky/s5u4_zadani.png

The plane begins to move. May be a situation where plane is going to full throttle but still is in a same place (cause the block)? How it depends on the wheel material, the block and the floor? My friend said it is a special case when the block is high just on the touch of wheel. What will happen?

Thanks and sorry for my bad English,
Numeriprimi

Your English is excellent but your link will not open and I'm not sure I understand your question. Are you talking about an airplane, that has a block against each wheel preventing it from moving? What is holding the block in place? If the block is low enough, the wheel can just step onto and over the block.

FAQ: The Mysteries of a Plane-Block System: Help Needed!

What is a plane-block system?

A plane-block system is a theoretical model used to explain the movement and structure of blocks on a plane. It involves a flat surface (the plane) and blocks of varying shapes and sizes that can be moved and stacked on top of each other.

Why is it important to study a plane-block system?

Studying a plane-block system can help us understand the fundamental principles of mechanics and geometric relationships. It also has practical applications in fields such as engineering and architecture.

What are the mysteries surrounding a plane-block system?

Some of the mysteries surrounding a plane-block system include how the blocks interact and influence each other's movements, the stability of stacked structures, and the maximum height that can be achieved by stacking blocks.

How can I help with unlocking the mysteries of a plane-block system?

As a scientist, you can contribute to unlocking the mysteries of a plane-block system by conducting research, performing experiments, and developing mathematical models to explain its behavior. Collaborating with other scientists and sharing your findings can also contribute to a better understanding of this system.

What are some potential real-world applications of understanding a plane-block system?

Some potential real-world applications of understanding a plane-block system include the design of stable structures and buildings, the development of efficient packing methods, and the improvement of transportation and logistics systems. It can also have applications in computer graphics and animation.
