Mathematics vs. Physics.

The vortex model to explain lift of an airfoil is a mathematical approach. It provides a means to abstract arbitrary airfoils' physical properties to a generalised mathematical model so that performance or other physical properties of any airfoil can directly be compared with any other one. The physical - or real - cause or explanation of lift is indeed the intuitive bernouilly approach. The spoon does not at all show the so-called coanda effect, but merely cohesion and adhesion effects between water molecules reciprocally and the surface of the spoon, together with surface tension effects. The coanda-effect's pseudo-scientific aura has even been amplified and confirmed by this WIKI entry, since it seems impossible for coanda-believers to unambigously demonstrate what it is about.

removing the "citations needed" section

this looks like it was originally placed there in 2008. don't you think it could be removed at this point?? 2405:DA40:436A:FA00:B0D:B5C2:347C:3115 (talk) 22:40, 16 August 2025 (UTC)Reply

No. The tags should be removed only when the indicated problems are fixed. Binksternet (talk) 02:33, 17 August 2025 (UTC)Reply
