One of the questions in the Ant Manor small class on March 16, 2023 is: Why do my ears feel pressure when riding the high-speed train through a tunnel? You may not know the answer to this question, so what is the answer to this question? Now the answer is provided for everyone, let’s take a look.
Answer: Caused by changes in air pressure
Ear discomfort when riding a high-speed train through a tunnel is mainly caused by the pressure difference between the inside and outside of the ears. The speed of the high-speed train is very fast, and the area of the tunnel is relatively narrow. Therefore, when the high-speed train quickly enters the tunnel, the air inside will be quickly squeezing, so a relatively large air pressure difference will be formed inside the high-speed rail.
