We prefer aerodynamics explained in things we can understand. Like bullets.

As an American, I don't need everything explained to me in Hamburger terms.

...

...

But, yes, that helps. Thanks.

Behind the cheeseburger, do you see how it looks like a firearm discharge on top but the bottom looks like cigarette smoke?

That means it's producing some lift but also producing significant drag.

This is amazing. I feel seen and educated at the same time.

[-] SirDerpy@lemmy.world 1 points 1 month ago

This would be epic if it's you.

Did you once get robbed while living with Jeff? USMC? Hate your real name?

If so, I've been looking for you and Jeremy for years.

[-] MajorHavoc@programming.dev 2 points 1 month ago

Never lived with Jeff or went to USMC, sorry.

How much is that in football fields?

Based on this evidence, should we all be driving burger shaped cars?

Pure aerodynamic analysis heavily favors trains as the most efficient means of transport. There's far less drag per person, even if a train is well under capacity, even if the train is moving twice as fast as even a burger shaped car.

Any decent American knows they've got to rotate their dogs or they won't fit nicely into the buns.

So, for the American audience, yes, just like a hotdog. But, for foreign audiences it's like a hotdog before it's cooked. Not a bratwurst, a good ole' American Oscar Meyer.

It keeps me up at night thinking of what could have been.

What’s that, like, 38 MPH? (62 KPH for the rest of the world?)

[-] Potatisen@lemmy.world 3 points 1 month ago

I kinda wanna know the answer to the title.

[-] CarbonatedPastaSauce@lemmy.world 4 points 1 month ago

The SR-71's top speed was 2,200 mph. 2,200 mph = 139,392,000 iph (inches per hour). Typical hamburger patty is about 5" in diameter. 139,392,000 / 5 = 27,878,400 cph (cheeseburgers per hour), or as the original question asked, 1,672,704,000 cpm.

The answer is 'it depends'. How many passengers on the flight? Is it a long-haul that offers real food or a short hop with just cookies and pretzels? How burger-heavy is that airline's menu? Shockingly, some don't even offer burgers at all. Also, at which stage of the flight are we? Have some of the burgers already been consumed? If so, do they still count? What about burgers eaten before the flight but still in the stomachs of passengers? Or even burgers eaten long before but subsequently converted into bodily tissue? It's not as straightforward as it might seem at first glance.
