Ask an Explainer
Q:
Would something that is aerodynamic also move the same way in water?
A:
Yes, because both air and water are fluids.
Bernoulli's principle works just as well in water as it does in air, with fatser moving water lowering in pressure. If an object is designed to reduce drag in air, it will also reduce drag in water. This is called being streamlined.
