Listen "Why Falling Into Water Feels Like Hitting Concrete: Physics Unpacked"
Episode Synopsis
In this episode, we dive into the surprising physics behind why hitting water from a height feels like hitting concrete. Here are the top 5 discussion points:
Debunking the myth that surface tension is the main factor behind the hard impact.
How water’s incompressibility makes it behave more like a solid at high speeds.
The role of speed and momentum in creating a dangerous impact with water.
How professional divers use bubble systems to soften their landings.
Exploring the potential of non-Newtonian fluids for high-impact landings.
