The perception of taste is remarkably complex, not only on the tongue but in organs throughout the body.
The idea that specific tastes are confined to certain areas of the tongue is a myth that “persists in the collective consciousness despite decades of research debunking it.” Also wrong: the notion that taste is limited to the mouth.
Not only doesn’t tell the whole story, but there are parts of it that just aren’t understood at all.
Two particles split by the wing reach the end of the wing at the same time, but the one on top of the wing is going faster? 🤔
What generates the low pressure zone on top of the wing? 🤔
Smarter people than me have been trying to figure it all out and while there are some good answers, they’re competing answers. LOL.
Because it travels further, due to the curve, surely. So the air particles are more stretched across the top of the wing, and the pressure therefore lower than along the relatively straight underside of the wing. I thought that was the explanation. I’m interested to hear why that’s not a complete enough answer though, because planes are clearly flying.
They don’t actually reach the trailing edge at the same time afaik.
