If you run on a plane are you moving faster than the plane?
If the frame of reference is the ground, and if you are running forward, you are indeed moving faster than the plane. If you are running toward the rear of the plane, you are moving slower than the plane.
What is the frame reference for a plane moving at 500 kmh?
The ground
Can a plane stand in air without moving?
No, the plane has to be moving. The wings generate lift, and the engine creates speed. But it could also be Yes if by the word "moving" you mean relative to the ground or ground speed. A plane needs airflow over the wing to fly. However, if the aircraft can fly into the wind such that the wind speed equals the speed of the air flow over the wing then the plane will be flying but it will not be "moving". For Example: suppose you have a light-weight airplane that lands at 45 Knots. Then on a certain day the wind is blowing at 45 knots along the runway. The pilot lines up the airplane into the wind. The relative speed of the air over the wing will be 45 Knots but the ground speed will be Zero (0).
WHAT job would an inclined plane be BEST suited for?
moving a large box from the bed of a truck to the ground
How many points are needed to describe a plane?
3, but they cannot all lie along the same line.
What pair of directional terms would always describe movement along the sagittal plane?
superior and inferior

Why do you taxi a plane not drive it?
Well you pilot and airplane not drive it, when you are on the ground you taxi the plane using the rudder pedals and sometimes even a hand wheel but is not like a car. By the way the term taxi is being used as a verb which means to move a plane on wheels along the ground.
Does air resistance prevent the diver from moving in a straight line once she jumps from the platform?
Since the plane is moving horizontally, the diver will also have this velocity relative to the ground, so on leaving the plane a parabolic curve will tend to be followed although this will be distorted by air resistance.
You suffer from being in small places too long how do you fly in aircraft?
because the plane is moving along and there is good views it wont be that bad
