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
The air has momentum so it will keep going in the direction it was going but you are changing your direction so you go into the path of the air.
Think of a very loose string attached to your rear mirror. It will do the same thing just the air isnt attached to anything so it will keep going until it hits something or runs out of speed.
