Question 2

Suppose you are inside a smooth-flying no bumps jet plane moving at constant speed in a straight line across the Atlantic Ocean. Can you detect this motion i.e.
 
  , can you tell that you are moving without directly or indirectly making use of anything outside of your own reference frame? If so, how could you detect this; and if not, why not?
  A) Yes. For example, if you dropped a coin you would find that it lands to the rear of the drop point.
  B) Yes. For example, if you dropped a coin you would find that it lands to the front of the drop point.
  C) No, because of the principle of relativity.
  D) No, because of the principle of the constancy of lightspeed.
  E) No, because jet planes move far too slowly for such an effect to actually be observed.

Dogs have been used in studies to detect various cancers in human subjects. They have been trained to sniff breath samples from humans that were collected by having them breathe into special tubes. These people included 55 lung cancer patients, 31 breast cancer patients, and 83 cancer-free patients. The dogs detected 54 of the 55 lung cancer patients as having cancer, detected 28 of the 31 breast cancer patients, and gave only three false-positive results (detecting cancer in people who didn't have it).
