    assuming that the jar is airtight, it would weigh the same as the air pressure from the wings would push down o the bottom of the jar.

      Same force is applied irrespective of the jar being sealed or not.

      I’m moronic, and I don’t know the real answer but I’m guessing the reasoning behind the answers would be:
      >1kg: the flies are airbourne and thus don’t add mass to the jar
      >1.5kg: the flies are airbourne but the jar is sealed shut, therefore the flies add mass to the total jar weight because the air isn’t escaping

        This is dumb. Not to mention it wouldn't hurt. The pain, like light, can't escape a black hole. You'd just be disassembled on the atomic level. You wouldn't actually feel any pain since your pain receptors if they got into contact with it vanishes faster than light meaning you don't feel anything.

    Are the flies flying in a vaccum or is there air inside the jar?

          rockets are propelled into a vacuum and then expel material in order to change course, accelerate or decelerate
          Newton’s third law, Brand. The only way humans have ever figured out of getting somewhere is to leave something behind.
          A fly doesn't fly by expelling material but by pushing the air below it to create lift.
          In a vacuum this isn't an option

            that's not how any of this works ameritard
            flies fly because when they move their wings relative to their body their center of mass is shifted upwards

    The flies aren't pressing down on the scale but the jar is.

      The flies are pressing on the air which is pressing on the jar
      If the jar were completely filled to the brim with flies it would be heavier, a small number of flies add weight too

    Anybody saying 1kg is a troll. The answer is the same as if it was water. 1.5kg

    Depends on the pressure inside the jar. If the pressure is enough that the flies will displace .5 kg of air then the jar would weigh slightly more than 1 kg.

    • 5 months ago

      assuming that the flies are all airborne, the scale will show on average 1.5kg because in order to stay aloft, the flies will propel air below them with a force concomitant with their collective weight.

        >the flies will apply pressure to the scale of 0.5kg
        let's imagine the jar is the exact same weight, but it's one mile tall
        and the flies are in the top half of the jar
        Will the flies still apply pressure to the scale?
        The distance that flies will apply any noticable pressure is probably in the range of 4-5cm

            the static air pressure provides resistance, and since the jar isn't infinitely wide, so do the walls of the jar
            ask yourself why pressure doesn't change with the width of a container

            No, moron. There is space between air molecules and they cushon the movement and the absorb the force

          it's a clever way of seeding doubt but if the jar is closed it's still a closed system and the total mass of the system is 1.5kg and that's what the scale would show
          there's an interesting aside to this, that if all the flies are flying at the top of the jar and at some point stop flying at the same time, during their freefall from the top of the jar to the bottom, they would not be exercising any force and so the scale would show a different measurement for the duration of the fall

      the jar is a closed system
      if the jar were open, maybe some of the air current the flies were generating to create lift would escape but if there is a top on the jar, all the energy propelling the flies upwards is creating an equal but opposing force downwards towards the scale
      if the flies collectively weight .5kg, that's how much will be added to the weight of the jar
      another way to think of it is if the jar were full of water and it weighed 1kg with the water. now you add .5kg of flies that float around.
      what does the scale show?

    The force (measured in the same units as weight) exerted by the flies to stay flying is directed downwards, so their full weight is measured by the scale.

      but the flies arent actually weighing down the jar because they are in mid air, therefor weightless. Like a plane doesnt weigh 3 tons when its flying, cruiseships become weightless once they are floating

    The gay moron flies will create some air pressure that will hit the scale. The air going by the walls will lose a bit of force to friction which turns to heat and escape the jar. So <1.5kg

      If Actiongay were right then there wouldn't be any buildings near airports because they'd be flattened, when on my last flight we literally flew 50 feet above one of the buildings before touching down
      Turbulence exists. Dissipation exists. Actiongay is a midwit and so are you.

          I'm not saying that, morono
          I'm saying the force on the ground is never going to be equivalent to the lifting force, not because it "spreads out" but because dissipation mechanisms like turbulence and friction exist and dissipate some of that pressure/energy before it reached the ground
          Don't take my word for it, you can see it right fricking here
