Gasoline was ration to conserve rubber

Very true Jax, you got it right!! Now tell us why it was lifted?

While you're at it, tell us old sailors how to the trim our sail to
maximize driving force according to "Newton's Laws of Motion"

Can we still use tel-tail as we did with Bernoulli's Theorem?

Tell us all, now that you admitted to increasing the curved surface (
making chord larger) to increasing lift at slower, speeds why this is
so? What happens?
Most of us; "Older Sailor" accept Newton's Law. We Hope you can
enlighten us to the whys

Ole Thom :^)

old fart, "chord" as the term is used in aeronautics, means a straight line.

increasing the curved surface (
making chord larger

No Jax;

There are many, many straight line in aviation that are called just
that, and you know it.

You also know that "Chord" is used as a measurement in Airfoil
dimensions. Also used in Sail Trim.

However, that does't answer the question about Sail Trim for Newton's
Law, does it? That is the question that has been posed to you. How do us
"OLD SAILORS" know how to get the most out of sail trim adjusting for
Newton's Law. What do we look for as we adjust;
Halyard tension

Outhaul

Cunningham

Sheet tension

Vang tension

Slot position MAIN/JIB

We know these things affect the speed of the boat. How can we know how
to get the Max Effect? What do we look for?
We know those "Dumd Ass sialing to those Bernoulli postioned tel-tails
are going faster. Help us converts to Newtons Law.

from the dictionary:

chord2 ( P ) Pronunciation Key (kôrd, krd)
n.
A straight line connecting the leading and trailing edges of an airfoil.

incredible that the olde fart thinks a curved line is straight.

No Jax;

That is what you want me to say

A Chord is a straight line that touches a Curved line at two places.
And that's the truth Bllrrrppp :^P) !!!!!!

Now, ONCE AGAIN, what does that have to do with trimming a sail to make
a boat go faster using Newtons Law?

Do you need more time to truly learn about what drives a sailboat. You
seemed very sure we didn't know and you did. PROVE IT, Jax ass be, Prove
it!!!!!
Tell us dumb ass what to look for that PROVES YOUR POINT !!!!!

Ole Thom
P/S You prove it Jax. You can't put words in my mouth. The world isn't
waiting for proof that I'm wrong. The ball is in your court. We're
waiting for your proof that you know what makes a sailboat move

old man, obviously you believe you are not only informed but so thoroughly
informed that you have nothing to learn. you also obviously have a mental
condition that makes you unable to accept any situation that shows there is
anything at all left for you to learn, let alone the entire universe of
knowledge.

that means rational discussion is not possible with you. look at your efforts
to cover up and deny you did not even know the definition of the elemental
aeronautical term "chord". not much to be gained in dealing with an ignorant
fool like you old man who insists he knew everything there is to know by the
time he was 12 years old.

sails do not produce a foward force vector "because they are curved on one
side", old man. you were misinformed. get used to it.

Geez, Jax ... so now you are reduced (if any reduction of your
character, personality, or intellect, is possible) to cut and pasting
your last psych evaluation.

May be there is no such thing as a straight line. After all, space is
curved.

Cheers

Nav;

That was Jax. I said a Chord was a straight line that touched a curve at
tow places and sometimes used in airfoil design.

He couldn't answer the question and he had to invent something that he
could knock. Pay no attention when he is pinned, he'll write a reply to
his own lie. Something like Simple Sieman.(Puts in his thumb and pulls
out a plum and says; "What a good boy am I!").

Ole Thom
P/S A "CHORD" is used in a Airfoil to measure the leading edge to the
trailing edge. That is for Jax's benifit not yours
