Yes, A, because the portal is basically a hula-hoop.

But muh reference frames?
No, because allowing Portals to be in difference reference frames breaks Galilean relativity. You have to privilege one portal over the other.
It is, and always will be, B. Imagine you have two stacked cubes 1 m across and the portal is moving at 30 meters per second. The first cube goes through. If it stops, the other cube presses against it at 30 meters per second. Then you realize that object divisions are arbitrary, and if things are moving, they'll keep moving.
Yes. Neither is true because portals cant be place on moving objects.
B-but the moon…
Valve was retarded and the fact that puzzles have the moving platforms destroy the portals shows that’s how it works
Objects aren’t moving though and the portals don’t have mass and it certainly cannot transfer that energy to an object in any way.
Where does the energy in a vertical portal loop come from?
You can't make appears to energy. Portals even in the same reference break conservation of energy and conservation of momentum.
I just tested it in real life and its A. I thought it was gonna be B but it was A.
You put a portal on a moving platform to redirect a laser to cut the neurotoxin tube, retard
Fucking gravity, numbnuts
Did you plop?
AI says its A
Wow a interesting v thread.
Anon, adding energy requires work. Work is not done by a static field. Did you fail HS physics?
AI is wrong because it's trained on incorrect data. You can tell because it incorrectly claims that conservation of momentum is a factor. Portals break conservation of momentum.
B-fags aren't thinking with portals they're trying to apply 3D science to a 4D problem.
neither are true or false because this shit hinges upon how the game engine works, not the laws of physics. it's a paradox. If you want to ask why, here's what happens when you bring up the laws of physics:
you can't have A work because energy isn't conserved.
B doesn't work because the object suddenly gets energy without any worked applied to it.
therefore this whole premise is impossible to decipher beyond "the devs said A/B works."
Do not respond to ai posts. Anyone who automates their mind deserves to be ignored
B fags are materialist hylic NPCs who can't comprehend reality outside of entropy
we’re actually reaching the point where people are reposting chat AI responses as evidence for an internet argument
It’s real Indian hours
Ignore ai posts. Do not respond to ai posts. Do not mention ai posts. Do not even give a hint of acknowledgmeent towards ai posts
Portals are functionaly doors. Momentum is transferred through them not by them.
If a door frame falls around you, will you suddenly fly into the air at the sane speed the door frame fell around you? No. If a hoolahoop falls on you, will you fly up at the speed the hoolahoop fell on you? No.
Ignore A-posters until they can demonstrate good faith
