What else can I help you with?
If a boat has a big sail and goes faster why is it?
becos the saile is bigger sow it gets more air
How the sail boat works?
Wind pushes in to the sail on a sail boat, the boat then moves.answer 2It pushes only when sailing with the wind directly behind. Most of the time the sail is just like a wing, the curve of the sail causes the wind to move faster across the front of the sail (Bernoulli says faster air, less pressure), slower air behind sail (more pressure) sail generates "lift" in a horizontal direction and moves the boat. Controlling the shape of the sail and its orientation to the wind controls the lift it generates.The keel counter balances the weight of the sails and rigging and the "lift" generated by the sails, it also keeps the boat from just skidding sideways across the water.
How does air pressure move air?
When a sailing boat is sailing into the wind the shape of the sail acts like a plane's wing and differential pressure across the sail propels the boat forward.
What sail need to work?
a force in the air pushing a sail to move a boat also know as wind
How does air pressure move boats?
When a sailing boat is sailing into the wind the shape of the sail acts like a plane's wing and differential pressure across the sail propels the boat forward.
How does air help a sailboat work?
the wind blows against the sail's and pushes the boat forward
Why light travel faster in air than water?
Water is denser than air . Hence light travels faster in air than water.
What is the force that moves the boat through the water?
It's lift. Like an airplane wing, a sail is an airfoil only vertical. As it passes through the air, the curved shape of the sail causes the air on the outside of the sail to go further and therefore, faster, than the air on the inside of the sail. According to Bernoulli's Principle, when the airflow increases, the pressure drops so the pressure on the underside of the airfoil becomes greater and "lifts" or pushes the sailboat along. See the link below for more information on Bernoulli's Principle.
Light can go through faster in the air or glass?
Air.
Is the light travelling faster in air or glass and why?
Light travels faster in air compared to glass because the speed of light is inversely proportional to the refractive index of the medium. Air has a lower refractive index than glass, so light can move faster through air than through glass.
Which is faster the speed of sound in air or the speed of light in air?
Speed of light in air ~ speed of light in vavuum = 3,00 *10^8 m/s speed of sound in air ~ 330 m/s. Speed of light is faster than sound in air
Can air travel faster than light?
No.
