Popis: |
In this article, we study the behaviour of a looped string launched in ambient air using motorised wheels. We show that the loop, once it reaches its stationary state, is either in the pulley or the air-lifted state. The transition between these two distinct states occurs at the so-called takeoff speed. We prove that this speed differs from one string to another based on its characteristics. However, it is independent from the loop’s length and its initial launch angle. This speed indeed corresponds to the threshold where air drag starts compensating for the weight of the string. |
