When riding in a car, if the air vent is not pointed at you directly but while the car is turning left or right in a turn you can feel the air hitting you. What causes this?
In: Planetary Science
It’s probably because the air pressure and direction change with the car’s motion. When you turn the car, the vents shift slightly, and the air flow trajectory changes, temporarily directing the flow toward you. It’s like when you blow on your hand and move your head side to side, you can feel the air hit different parts of your hand.
