I have a better question MC, how is it that I can't see your response to me
directly, but only by reading CMs response. Note the sequence below, I never knew you wrote back to me until he responded to you. Strange. In another post, I was the OP and asked if anyone is going to the Sailboat show in Annapolis. I see responses to my question, but I've never been able to see my own post. See ya in a few days. Scout.

If the road turn left and your car can´t follow the curve, what do you call the force acting on the car and what caused the accident? There is centrifugal force felt as long as the car's tires attach it to the road so the force is felt. As soon as the car leaves the road and there is no traction from the tires the car goes in a straight line direction at a tangent from the center of the curve. At the moment the traction breaks from the road/tires there no longer is any centrifugal force. In the case of sails, there is nothing attaching the wind to the sails so there is no centrifugal force.

Yes that aspect always frustrated me. But I think Newton's third law covers it: the force
of the pull is countered by the force of the object pushing back. No net force, no acceleration. To actually get acceleration, you have to consider the whole system.

Yes, unless the point of application of the force does not move with the

Jan,
Your reply, once again, is loaded with errors and show very little depth of understand of the very things you are discussing. You say velocity cannot create low pressure. WRONG!! Just think of a painter's spray gun. The paint is introduced into the air stream by a low pressure created by the velocity of the air thru a venturi. A hand pumped bug sprayer creates a low pressure by velocity over the tip positioned in that high velocity steam. This is something you have to come to terms with understand the workings of a sail I asked you "What is the Ground effect have to do with a sail" you elected to not answer that but you go off half cocked about wings, sails, rudders, curved roofs etc all working the same. I AGAIN ASK YOU to explain how ground effect is of importance in the operation of a Sail? Even in your use of Newton's Law your understanding is WRONG! You say deflecting the air thus creating a force. Jan the air flow is the FORCE. The deflecting is the action, which creates the reaction. Your understanding of Newton's first law leaves at lot to be desired. Jan, you better read some of those web sites you are calling up on Search. Ole Thom |

Tell that to all the tornado victims who have seen the structure they were in explode from greater pressure inside than outside because of winds up to 200mph or greater creating sever low pressure. But Dear Simple Simon, do you not even understand how a tornado works? First you need a big CB, to get the updraft. When the the horisontal circulation starts, it´s centrifugal/centripetal forces causing the lower pressure to form. Of cause, the house explodes if an airstream at 200 mph gets turned around the house! There will be very big low pressure gradients around the house! That physics is very simple to understand even for Simple Simon, if he just forget Leonard Eulers 1 D equation for a perfect, physically non existing fluid, namely the so called "Bernoulli equation"! Have you ever felt that it is the speed of the car that gives you the power in the engine just as the "Bernoulli Effect" should give the sail a force? Jan-Olov Newborg |
