Ok, what do you guys think about this
(spoiler alert: if you try this in the game, the cube refuses to go through at all)
I'm going for B, because:
1) Option A implies the cube keeps whatever momentum the cube had in relation to the "ground". That means that:
1a) if you take a cube and a portal on a fast train and then slowly push the cube through, it comes shooting out the other side at high speed. Ok, then what happens when the cube is halfway through? The back end is moving into the portal at a slower rate than the front end is leaving the exit portal. So the cube is ripped apart.
1b) in the setup in the picture, the front half would not be moving at all, so it wouldn't actually be going through at all. Of course that means you couldn't have stuck in the front half either.
2) the cube has a relative velocity with the entry portal, it must have the same relative velocity with the exit portal
3) the argument that throwing a portal over an object is like throwing a hoop over it isn't really true - a hoop has the "exit" moving at the same speed as the "entry", and indeed the cube "exits" with the same relative velocity as it enters, and that leaves the cube stationary just as it would if the blue portal was pointed upwards and falling at the same speed as the yellow portal is falling (in that case the cube would move through space but gain no momentum).
4) from the perspective of the yellow portal (and choosing an other inertial reference frame like that is OK), the cube is moving and some speed and it will keep that speed at the other side.
Thoughts?
