A propeller is a type of fan which transmits power by converting rotational motion into thrust. It can be used to drive an aircraft, ship, or the fluid within a pump. It consists of one or more blades about a central shaft and operates like a rotating screw or wing. A pressure difference between the forward and rear surfaces of the airfoil-shaped blade is produced and air or water accelerated behind the blade. Propeller dynamics can be modeled by both Bernoulli's principle and Newton's third law.

Why does the rotation of car wheels and propellers seem to reverse after time or certain RPMs?
Q. Have you ever watched the wheels of a car or a prop plane as it starts up? They travel clockwise at first, and then seem to reverse after a while. Is it an optical illusion with the RPMs? This happens in reality, too. Get on the highway and watch the wheels. Be safe.
