No, you need a tailwind
2
Need a really long windtunnel though
1
@tanyjags and that’s precisely why they used a treadmill
1
@tanyjags but for practical use what is the difference?
1
@tanyjags I’d say the data at 9:35 is more than enough proof
1
@shanewhite352 it accelerates because of build up kinetic energy? Who are you kidding?
1
Do elaborate
1
No it is not like using a motor
1
@shyamraa the wheels
1
@shyamraa that’s like saying windmills can’t produce energy if tested in a windtunnel
1
@shyamraa explain the difference with a windtunnel and treadmill. Without using dumb terms like ‘the treadmill is powering the fan’
1
@shyamraa no, comparing it to a capacitor is a false comparison. The fan does not give a temporary boost based on stored inertia. The vehicle will continuously move at a higher velocity than the wind
1
That would be pointless?
1
If you consider wind energy perpetual energy then yes
1
@nicolaedumitrache9246 if this is referring to the treadmill I’d say it’s a very poor example
1
Lmao so close 😂
1
@robertbedsole8682 random comments are not facts lmao😂
1
@alexschenk4465 they literally say it needs tailwind, do you have eyes?
1
@alexschenk4465 if the racing cars move in a single direction, without steering, it could work yes. But it isn’t applicable in any race with turns
1
How is a solid floor with wind any different than a treadmill with no wind?
1
Neither
1
@CTYeung the propeller
1
You know someone has some spicy claims when the text contains ‘they all believe’ ‘creation theory’
1
No?
