It’s obvious you were never in a physics class. Momentum boy. That’s mass x velocity. The impact it’s going to be so much on the aircraft depending on the flight level. I suspect an eagle. Those birds can attain very high altitude.

Abeg help school them before my mind diverts to my siggy.

No bird is big enough to cause such damage. We will await NTSB's investigation to know exactly what happened. They should thank their stars it was a Boeing. It's much stronger and durable than Airbus though the latter is more easy to fly.

for Africa here na witchcraft na dey involved
Oyinbo dey say na bird, Abeg waytin be d name of the bird.

A bird indeed.
The biggest bird is an ostrich, and even an ostrich can`t cause such damage to common vehicles, talk more of a Boeing! And ostriches don`t fly!

We must be under alien attack!!!

It all depends on the force. You know force = ma ..mass x accelaration. Again the kinetic energy of the two bodies. KE = 1/2mv2 and to every action there is equal and opposite reaction, Newton explained collision perfectly. If you mathematically put this two together you will know that a tiny object moving with high velocity could cause more damage than a truck moving with slow velocity. However, I will not rule out aliens, or debris from chinese satellite or bird either or even tiny meteorites and Edo people.

Edo people. That one I might accept too.

Fantastic, assuming it’s an American bald eagle, weighing about 7kg and moving at a velocity of about 1000m/s. The impact momentum is 7000kgm/s or impulse of 7kNs. That’s huge. Now if there’s an impact with the Boeing aircraft, even if it’s momentarily it will do some damage. Like someone said anyway, NTSB will do justice to this bizarre incident. Trust the Americans. I’m already investigating too...

aliens invasion make I grab my popcorn

If na naija dem for don dey shout say na Benin witch upandan,mofos everywhere

Yea man...America no dey waste time for this kind matter na...they might even show the video very soon pictured from a satellite unless, its misterious and needs study, then they will hide it from the whole world. Make God bless Africa with scientists and the likes of Newton, Faraday, and those inventors....we will be more than happy.

We’ve got a lot of them in Africa but the leadership is crappy. Make we just dey look abegg

Even if it was ET...authorities would never own up, it would bring the aviation industry to a halt.

Probably a flock of birds tho...

Pls where can I watch basketball matches in naija?

They don't show NBA games in naija anymore.. DSTV used to have the right to show NBA game but lost that right in the 2016/2017 season... Ur best bet is to watch highlight's just like I do..

If u find a way to watch, buzz me ..

Thanks

In physics, the amount of force applied to a body is equal to mass and acceleration.
F = M × a

If you need a force of 20N to cause that Indentation, it means you can have a big mass (elephant) and it moving at a walking pace. Let me say the elephant weighs 20Kg and it moves at 1m/s^2 ( 20 ×1= 20N)

On the other hand, you can have something as small as a pigeon moving fast also considering how fast the plane is travelling. Let's say at 20m/s^2 and it weighs 1kg. When you times them, you would get same amount of force 20N.

I really don't know what collided with the plane but what I tried explaining to you is that when a small object is moving very fast like the hydron collider at Switzerland used In accelerating atomic particles, it exerts a large amount of energy.

Ogbeni fear GOd!!!!!! 1000m/s for a Bald Eagle!!!!!!!
Eagle don dey fly faster than bullet.. Bros calm down..
Make I educate u small..
1km/hr = 0.278 m/s..
The max speed of a bald eagle is 160km/hr (44.44 m/s)..


Ur analogy on momentum is correct though.. Ur figures wrong..

Scary.

Max speed for an American bald eagle is about 44meters per second.

Exactly mass x velocity, the mass of a bird even an eagle is insignificant to dat of the plane and the plane also has to travells at great speed often greater than that of the birds to maintain stability at those altitude, plus the streamlined shape of the plane not only helps it slice air but also to reduce impact area during collision causing obstacles to glide off, so whateva dented the plane must be metal hard not a bird, except d plane is made of plastic

Thanks. That’s why I said “assuming” and it’s a no-brainer that assumptions sometime take you wide off the mark. However, I just checked the speed of the American bald eagle. It’s actually 160kmph max. Conversion truly gives about 44m/s. So that’s about 308kgm/s (don’t forget that the weight of the bird is also under assumption before you crucify me ). The impulse is now 0.308kNs (this is almost like an elephant weighing 100kg and running at about 3m/s hitting an airborne aircraft!). How does this impact a Boeing 757 weighing several tonnes and moving at about 500mph? Now you need to play with the energy transferred, precisely the K.E interplay between the bird and the aircraft. Unfortunately i don’t have the data on the aircraft because I need the maximum load, true airspeed, surface area of the nose etc. and will not risk assumptions anymore. In summary, these calculations are by no means accurate nor cast in stone but they do give a true sense of the impact of an average bird on the structure of the aircraft while airborne. It’s just a way of establishing the possibilities of airborne impact causing so much damage, at least from the point of view of physics and aerodynamics. Like, we all agreed earlier, America’s NTSB will do justice to this incident. Those guys can investigate anything and I’m sure this incident isn’t going to be different. Thanks once more for the observation.

Nobody really nose yet but i plane injured an angel in the sky and d pilot didnt notice because he was on auto drive and eating then.

nose off lol

mumu bloggers will see this picture elsewhere and post "Witch returning from meeting collides with plane at Ikeja, Lagos"

Its SUPERMAN!: And the Superman is Kim Jong Un! It's just a warning for the Yankees.

If these happen in Nigeria. They will say it’s wicthes and wizards. They will say it’s spiritual attack and will go for testimonies. People perish for lack of knowledge.

You do not need a bird the size of an Ostrich to cause this kind of damage to an aircraft in motion.

if anyone mentions edo here eeehhh

you're using science to subtantiate a lie.
That Aircraft Was Hit By Something Massive But They Authorities Concern Wont Say It As It Is Just To Continue Keeping People In The Sky.
