Question

A motorcyclist is riding along a mountain trail that runs parallel to a road below. In fact the trail is 6 meters above the road. The motorcyclist then notices a flat bed truck directly below moving at the same speed and decides to drive off the trail, without changing speed. Fortunately, the motorcycle safely lands on the flatbed of the truck. What would the outcome have been if the trail was 12 meters above the road, but all other parameters remain the same?

Answer 1

The motorcycle would still land on the truck FLATBED just the way it landed when the trail was 6 meters above the road.

Explanation:

Based on the information given about the motorcyclist we were told that the trail was 6 meters above the road in which despite that the motorcyclist drive off the trail without changing his motorcycle speed which made the motorcycle to land on the truck FLATBED which means that if the trail was 12 meters above the road while all other parameters remain the same what the outcome could have been is that the motorcycle would still land on the truck FLATBED just the way it safely landed when the trail was 6 meters above the road.

Therefore FLATBED truck can simply be defined as truck which does not have any thing covering both the right side and left side of truck and as well does not have roof making the truck to have a FLATBED or flatbody which is why most of this type of truck are mostly used to transport goods or loads that are heavy.
