WHAT NOW /v/?
>>377365307
you have them switched
I choose C. No
>>377365307
literally entirely depends on what the pillar is made of and how much the object with the portal weighs
>>377365307
we had this one already
>>377365307
there isn't anything to support the orange portal in the air so it's gonna be some variation of A. either the pillar bends or the pillar breaks the structure or the pillar releases a lot of energy really fast and just shoot out of control.

>implying
what is holding the portal up in b?
>>377365307
Doesn't this just depend on the strength of the pillar vs the downward force of the portal?
>>377365307
too easy
>>377365307
This is actually more interesting than the original.

It wouldn't be A unless it was a tight fit. It would have to be a super tight portal for it to bend like that if it gets crammed in too fast.
we don't know how portals work, therefore, surprise surprise, we don't know how they would behave in such scenarios.
>>377365307
For the orange portal to stay aloft in "B", something would need to exert an upward force on it. Maybe such a force would be applied, or maybe not. I don't know.
But we don't need to imagine any invisible forces in "A". The bar is crushed between the horizontal platform on which it rests and the diagonal surface which it hits. As the orange portal falls, the available space decreases, but the portal itself doesn't exert a force on the bar, so we don't even need to ask how heavy it is.

Thing is nothing is pushing the base with the shaft into the black piece the shaft connects to in scenario B.
For the shaft to bend there would need to be a progressive force pushing into the black piece.
In B. There needs to be something holding up the Metal piece in order for it to stay up.
Either way this problem needs more data as every conclusion will be hypothetical.
Because in this current state you could argue magic as this involves a force that doesn't exist.

All it would need is to figure out the speed of the falling platform.
You would just calculate the velocity of the metal bar smashing into the black platform as it's speed would be directly applied to how fast the portal is falling.
A is a possible scenario, B is impossible as nothing is holding up the platform. Unless the portal itself acts as a web and connects to the shaft.
>>377368071
where did the force to crush the pillar came from though?
All these thought experiments are born from the initial flawed assumption that portals could be moved. Portals wouldn't be bound to an object but a point in space
>>377368025
the only true answer desu senpai
>>377368226
I'm not the guy to whom you're replying, but when the orange portal falls, it's essentially bringing the base of the pillar closer to the thing it eventually hits.
See the labels in my image. The distance between "x" and "y" is shrinking, but both "x" and "y" are presumably fixed in place such that they will not be pushed by the pillar, so they push back, per Newton's third law. There's the force.

Not enough information is here to actually have a proper conclusion.
Like is the base of X connected to the ground or disconnected and mobile. Also, you need to take into account the space of the whole in which the portal is which would allow space for the shaft to expand. Upon expanded you would have to apply specific forces in order for it to take place. IF you don't That Y would actually be the one crushing the mobile pillar in the area here at X. If you don't listen to the factors here you end up causing paradox here and paradox there. In order to form a proper conclusion you would need the science of information applied to the Y axis and then calculated to form the X formation.
If you manage to do these calculations quickly and thoroughly enough you produce a third final equation. Allowing the X to bend the Y in the vertical axis of the plethora query this allows you to divide the X on top of the Y to perform the axis vertices. But in order to perform that equation you would need to calculate these theories desperately, allowing you to multiply the force/ inertia which would in turn allow you to perform many different theoretical formulas on the bases.
Forming these ideas is not only difficult, but also taxing due to the energy production of quadrant Y. Actually doing this repeatedly would inevitably cause heat to form across the basis of the matrices and shoot out in a scrivener platform.
Thus using Schrodinger's cat this will allow us to perform the calculation needed to solve this problem. For that is the one and only way we would conquer a problem this obtuse.
