Arc of the air

The video tutorial explains how airflow interacts with a ball, creating a stable pocket due to Newton's third law. It demonstrates this concept using a straw and a blower, showing how the air curves around the ball, pulling it into the air stream. The tutorial highlights the importance of the ball's lightweight and round shape, and extends the demonstration to a light bulb, illustrating how airflow can create a lift force that stabilizes objects in the air stream.
