Are you referring to the wind powered propeller car bet or is there a new one?
- travisgriggs 5y agoYes, the wind powered deal, but it appears it's actually been conceded by the physics guy. I guessed wrong. Glad I didn't bet. :D
- jasonwatkinspdx 5y agoYeah, it's a fascinating question and I can see why it trips people up. Anyone that's done sailing/windsurfing will be familiar with the phenomena of apparent wind, and that's roughly what's going on here too.
