There's been a lot of discussion about bugs on the windshield lately so here's a technical question for those of you who are interested. You are driving due north at 60 MPH and a large bumblebee hits

When you stop the car to clean the windshield. Otherwise there is no time when the entire bee is at zero. .......... John

The "point" is when the southerly motion of the Bumblebee reaches stops. Time can be measured in infinily small increments, and first contact of the front of the bumblebee does not stop it's center o

Of course, if you take the larger frame of reference, the bee's velocity will become zero only when the universe collapses back in on itself... in John

Given that the windshield is sloped, the majority of the bee reaches zero when it falls onto the road somewhere behind the car. This doesn't count the smaller portion left on the windshield. (Bet he

Of course there is no single time when it zeros out. However, every part of the bee must pass through the zero speed point. Has to change velocity and that has direction. So, if we knew more about th

And don't forget that until recently, science could not explain why bumblebees fly. Their bodies are too heavy for the wingspan. Then again the theory of flight is just that....theory. Dave Johnson

Here's some background on the bumblebees can't fly story: Bumblebees CAN fly! The oft heard ridicule of scientists that say a bumble cannot fly because its wings are too small, in spite of the evide
