This explains why sailboats can move faster than the speed of the wind pushing them.
This explains why sailboats can move faster than the speed of the wind pushing them. This can be applied in its namesake's equation for incompressible as well as compressible flows at low Mach numbers. This was first published in its namesake's book Hydronamica, and is one explanation of why airplanes get lift as they increase their speed. FTP, name this principle which states that the velocity of a fluid is inversely proportional to the pressure the fluid exerts on its container.          |
