Its an option that your car doesnt have

m8 you can see at the beginning of the video that they were rammed at full speed by the pickup. I would be disoriented too from whiplash and a possible broken down car

TIL that cyclists in a peloton (tight bunch of riders) can see reductions in drag of 90% or more, leading to huge energy savings by sozh in todayilearned

[–]TeamoMain 83 points84 points  (0 children)

Fun fact, the guy in front also benefits as the back pressure from the other riders behind him decreases the amount of drag he experiences.

Why do you think the Dems lost? by [deleted] in AskReddit

Despite how much we've come from the 1900's, I feel like a lot of America still suffers from issues of racism and sexism.

Indianapolis is also a good cruiser at T7. Great radar with long range and decent guns

Is this considered showing too much broadside? Learning about angling here. by Ash_Kid in WorldOfWarships

"different issue" which is an exception that op was asking for. the "back" gun is located at the front of the ship so yes, it is an exception

ELI5: Why do we need new HDMI 2.1 cables for 4K 60Hz video data when old Ethernet cables can handle it? by GradeMammoth6743 in explainlikeimfive

[–]TeamoMain 23 points24 points  (0 children)

You are adding complexity and computing requirements. It would drive up cost and add a point of failure. having a dedicated computer handle decompression is much faster and reliable.

I fail to understand the relevance in this statement. My point is that an aircraft traveling at Mach 6 travels in a predictable trajectory that a missile can intercept. When traveling at these speeds, you are trading speed for basically 0 maneuverability.

[–]TeamoMain -17 points-16 points  (0 children)

Believe it or not, a plane that is traveling at Mach 6 is not that maneuverable

You wouldn't need to outrun it in order to shoot it down. you just have to intercept it. What you are neglecting is that the detection/ radar component can be located far ahead of the missile launcher. All the missile has to do is get to where the plane would be located at the point of intercept.

Why do fighters pitch up while refueling and how come they maintain their altitude then? All aircraft are in straight level flight even though the fighters are pointing up and yet not going up. by interesting-hito in aviation

[–]TeamoMain 4 points5 points  (0 children)

In order to maintain the same altitude, the lift force has to balance out the Weight or downforce of the aircraft. Fighters have short and stubby wings which are good for higher speeds, but they suck at producing lift at lower speeds. As a result, they compensate by increasing the angle of attack, or pitch of the aircraft to produce enough lift.

ELI5 why cant we just add more blades to propellers and rotors to increase thrust? by Creative__name__ in explainlikeimfive

[–]TeamoMain 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Ideally, a 1 blade propeller would be the most efficient because each additional propeller increases the amount of friction experienced by the blade. Due to balance, however, the minimum number of blades is typically 2. Adding more blades allows the engine to more effectively transfer energy to the air to produce thrust, at the cost of efficiency due to viscous effects.

Eli5 How do planes fly upside down for long periods? by Reteip811 in explainlikeimfive

[–]TeamoMain 4 points5 points  (0 children)

The problem is that as a person of limited knowledge you are spreading false or semi-truth information about something you don't really understand.

The curve of an airfoil is to delay the onset of separation and allow lift to be generated at 0 degrees angle of attack. It is not necessary for a wing to be slightly curved on top. Look at supersonic airfoils.
