Depends which side you're on.Does a fan pull air or push it?
Also an interesting engineering question. The aircraft I worked with in the Air Force would convert from a jet turbine at speed and altitude to a ramjet. The engineers would say the turbine supplied 15% of the thrust, and the inlet of the engine supplied the other 85%. I just nodded, and said, yeah but that afterburner is awfully loud.Does a fan pull air or push it?
LoL... a physicist would want to know where the person asking the question is sitting on the boat.... relative to a person sitting on the high pressure side of the sail you are being pulled... if you are lounging on the bow on the leeward side of the main sail, ... you are being pushedA Physicist would say you are being pulled.
Sounds like the SR71.Also an interesting engineering question. The aircraft I worked with in the Air Force would convert from a jet turbine at speed and altitude to a ramjet.
