Weird physics question for fun

[From: ] [author: ] [Date: 11-12-30] [Hit: ]
with respect to a car passing the train in the opposite direction with a speed of 100 km/hr, youd be going at the rate of 2905, everythings relative..by the way Rainman is right, also depends on which direction youre running in.......
im inside a train that is going 3,000km/hr

i decide to run inside the train and im running at 5km/hr

how fast am i going?
if the trained crash and i flew out the window how fast would i be going

thanks 10 points

Hey, the question is incomplete. How fast with respect to what? With respect to the train u'd still be running at 5km/hr, but with respect to the ground under the train you'd be going at 3005 km/hr.

EDIT:
By the way, with respect to a car passing the train in the opposite direction with a speed of 100 km/hr, you'd be going at the rate of 2905, everything's relative..
EDIT 2:
by the way Rainman is right, also depends on which direction you're running in.
EDIT 3:
With respect to the light poles u're going at the speed of 3,005 km/hr.
If you fly out, that depends on a lotta stuff, I'm not a physics major either and am not that good at it, but I believe if you fly out of the window ur velocity depends on not only air resistance, but also on your mass (I think inertia had to do something with it. Just read up on inertia).
EDIT 4:
lol yea I know I edit a lot but I just wanted to say that akm69 has an extra 0 in 2.

1) In refrence within train:- 5 km/hr
2) In refrence with earth:- 3,0000 km/hr
3) 3,000-5 = 2995 km/hr [ this is your net velocity in side train]

-
Question one depends on which direction on the train you are running. Question two depends on wind resistance.

I don't have an answer, I just wanted to say you have the coolest avatar picture I've ever seen

I know it's just for fun. But where do you find a train going over mach 2?????
