If the linear speed is 0, then the rotating speed can be x, y, z, or whatever other number you want to throw out there.
No, I'm only using the ground to press down on, much like the weight of the plane is pressing the wheels down on the treadmill. The linear speed does not have to be zero, you can change the linear speed of the pen and you will see the rotating speed change accordingly.
