Dimples on golf balls
The main function of dimples is to give the ball stability during flight, generate lift and reduce air resistance. This was discovered by the first players who noticed that their worn balls, covered with edges and scratches, flew further than the new, smooth ones. What used to be a heuristic was later scientifically confirmed. A ball with dimples flies more than twice as far as a smooth one. Dimples are used to give the ball stability during flight, generate lift and reduce air resistance.
Bottles with long necks
Long-necked bottles have been very popular for some time now and there are two good reasons for this. From the brewery’s point of view, it’s simple marketing. Studies have shown that beer drinkers prefer long-necked bottles because they can be held with two or three fingers and the cold beer does not have to be held by hand and therefore does not warm up as quickly. These reasons may sound banal, but studies rarely lie, especially this type of study.
