Agak-agak korang pun malas baca... sila skrol ke bawah.. ada kesimpulan kat situ...
When you're in an airplane flying at 600 mph, you can easily walk from the back to the front. Now you can't possibly run at 600 mph, let alone walk that fast, so how do you do that?
Answer: You're being carried along with the air in the airplane and all the rest of the airplane.
When you drop something in the airplane, it doesn't suddenly fly to the back at 600 mph either.
If course if the roof came off (see the Aloha Airlines "zip-top" 737) things would be a bit different.
Back to the mosquito and the car - if it was a convertible with the top down the mosquito would have a much tougher time of it.
But with the roof on and the windows up the fact that there is a 60 mph wind outside the car affects the car's occupants not at all.
When you're in a bus moving at 60 mph, you don't have any problem walking from back to front, right?
"But flying is different" - no it isn't, not as long as the windows are closed. The car moves the air, and the air moves the fly. Just like the car moves the seat, and the seat moves you. Or the bus moves the bus's floor, and the floor moves you because you're standing on it. So with zero effort on the fly's part the fly moves at 60 mph down the road, just like you do sitting in the car seat or standing in the bus. If the fly expends some effort it can move fore and aft within the car... this takes exactly as much effort as if the car wasn't moving.

Kesimpulan: Kereta bawa angin, angin bawa nyamuk... benda yang sama terjadi pada makhluk kat bumi... bumi berpusing pada kelajuan 1670 kilometers/jam jika kita berada di atas garisan khatulistiwa. Kalau korang duduk kat kutub utara atau selatan, lagi cepatlah masanya.
