| Aug 16 at 9:05 | comment | added | FlatterMann | m1*v1=m2*v2. If you try to do this for actual airflow it gets complicated really fast. I don't like complicated. | |
| Aug 16 at 0:05 | comment | added | rationalDiscourse | You have an intuitive explanation, sure, but you are expressing it using technical terms: momentum and conservation. Why aren't you willing to do the math? Please, give it a go. | |
| Aug 15 at 23:52 | comment | added | FlatterMann | @rationalDiscourse Nobody here is bothered by this question. You take a little bit of air that's fast and it collides with a lot of standing air and then you get a lot of air that is slow. That's momentum conservation. For me that's all there is to it. I don't need equations or anything to understand this intuitively. Do you? | |
| Aug 15 at 22:13 | comment | added | rationalDiscourse | @FlatterMann, Pity. I wonder then, why you bothered. | |
| Aug 14 at 5:29 | comment | added | FlatterMann | @rationalDiscourse No, not really. Continuum mechanics was my worst class. I barely made the cut. I don't have much love for it. | |
| Aug 14 at 4:27 | comment | added | rationalDiscourse | @FlatterMann Would you like to present an answer based on momentum conservation? | |
| Aug 13 at 3:14 | comment | added | rationalDiscourse | That's interesting: The question has been up for three weeks with no answers. Is it that hard? | |

Clarified an error in the presentation, which fortunately does not impact the answer.

Needs details or clarity | |
| Jul 25 at 5:08 | comment | added | FlatterMann | Not sure Bernoulli is all that helpful. I would simply argue with momentum conservation directly. | |

| Jul 25 at 0:55 | comment | added | rationalDiscourse | HMMM, perhaps, but there are at least two theories duking it out. With no real answer. The Cool Science is an actual experiment rather than a thought experiment. We can make measurements and test the answers. | |
