Jun 3, 2015 at 15:26 | comment | added | Jim | You are comparing total volume to volume flow. In going from A to B, the total volume of water remains unchanged no matter what your average speed is because you cover a given distance and the total volume of water in the air along your path should be fairly constant. But if you cover that distance faster, then more water must hit your windshield every second in order to allow the total amount of water to be the same. | |
