Default Two conveyor belt scenarios

@m7g2000cwm.googlegroups.com:

An airplane lands on a conveyor belt that's moving at a constant speed
of Vref

(a) in the direction of the airplane's landing
(b) in the opposite direction of the airplane's landing

What do you suppose will happen? (b) will be rather more dicey than
(a), methinks. Presume a healthy long runway for the moment...

Is this a powered conveyor or a gravity feed conveyor?

Rollers, Mattop, or Belt?
