What.....??
If you were flying around your car at 100mph with a fly in your flies how fast would your flies be flying?
How the HELL should I know???
I can get 2 pounds of meat out of a fly though
ZZZZZZIP.......WEY HEY!!! |

If the fly is at rest in your vehicle it is travelling at zero mph relative to your car but at 100 mph relative to the earth.
Is that swat you expected? |

Easy you said in your question that the fly was travelling at 100mph so the answer must be 100mph BUT if you meant the CAR was travelling at 100mph and the fly was sitting still then the answer is zero mph in relation to the car but 100mph in relation to the outside - but if the world is travelling through space in excess of 25,000 mph then that complicates things.....therefore swat the fly and pour yourself a beer. |

Strictly speaking, it is impossible to say at what speed the fy is moving, you must measure its velocity relative to some other body. For example, the fly could be said to have a velocity of 100mph relative to the earth, or a velocity of 0mph relative to the car. |

Speed is relative - To you, also in the car, the fly is travelling at zero - assuming it is sitting still.
Relative to the tree you are about to hit it, and you are travelling at 100 MPH. |

if you're asking in reference to a point (stationary), it depends on which direction the fly is going to. i'm sure its just going around inside your car. but your car speed is immaterial to its flight speed. |

you probably shouldn't be worrying about a fly in your car if you're driving a hundred miles per hour. |

He is flying 100 mph with the car, relitive to the scenery outside.
He is flying 0 mph relative to you sitting in the car.
Speed is relative, the speed is determined by what it is moving relative to. |

He's not flying he's travelling at 100mph cos he's sitting on the dash or windscreen admiring the view. HaHa Hope this helps and have a nice day! |

If the fly wants to live, it should get out of your car as soon as you slow down. If the fly is crawling along some place inside the car I'd guess it is doing 100 mph along with your body. |

It's all relative. We are all here clinging to a planet spinning round at upto 1000mph (if you stand on the equator). Can we feel it no. Would we if it stopped, yes. |

The fly wouldn't be TRAVELING AT ALL... he'd hit the windshield inside and splat within seconds of his flight..... |

depending on what direction the fly is flying in!
if to front of car it flying 100mph + the flys speed in the car.
if to back of car then its 100mph - flys speed in car as its actually going backwards
if sideways the its 100mph then same as car speed
if up or down then its same speed as car.
what a frigging question to ask lol.
Or if you read your question carefully...you have actually told me the fly is flying at 100mph in my car so therefore the answer is 100mph |

the fly is still going to reached a distance of 100 miles in an hour |

It is not flying, it is resting on your nose. So, 0 mph. |

No speed, because he's frozen in fear. |

100 mph the same speed with the car |
|

My flying toast OWNS yours!
 |
Its the car moving 100mph not the fly, so if the fly is standing still its moving at 0mph. |
|

Same as the car. I think. |

Grammerically, the "fly" is the subject and "in your car" is a prepositional phrase describing the location of the fly. Thus, the fly is traveling at 100 mph. |

Whatever speed you are going. |

The fly is doing 0 mph as it is not moving, only the car is doing 100mph.
This is like....if an air hostess is on her feet walking up and down the plane from London to New York, does this mean she has walked from London to New York? |

if the fly were still, it would be moving at 0 mph, the thing is that the car is moving the fly, but the fly is not moving itself. therefore the fly is not producing any movement. now if the fly were hovering over the car, it would depend of the speed of the wings. |
