Bernoulli's Principle

Front

What does fast moving air create according to Bernoulli's Principle?

Back

Low Pressure

Front

What concept does Bernoulli's Principle help to explain?

Back

Lift

Front

In fluid dynamics, fluid substances move from a region of high pressure to what?

Back

Lower pressure

Front

What happens to an airplane if the pressure is lower above the wing and higher below the wing?

Back

The airplane will lift.

Front

Which part of the airplane is most responsible for its ability to fly?

Back

Main Wing

Front

What is Bernoulli's Principle?

Back

It states that an increase in the speed of a fluid occurs simultaneously with a decrease in pressure or potential energy.

Front

How does Bernoulli's Principle relate to the flight of an airplane?

Back

It explains how differences in air pressure above and below the wings create lift.

Front

What is the relationship between fluid speed and pressure in Bernoulli's Principle?

Back

As the speed of a fluid increases, the pressure within the fluid decreases.

Front

What is the significance of the main wing in an aircraft?

Back

It generates lift by creating a pressure difference between the upper and lower surfaces.

Front

What role does air pressure play in the movement of fluids?

Back

Fluids always move from areas of high pressure to areas of low pressure.
