If the pressure is lower above the wing and higher below the wing, what will the airplane do?
lift
sink
Neither lift or sink
How does an airplane wing generate lift according to Bernoulli's principle?
The weight of the airplane pushes down on the air, causing it to lift the wing
The size of the wing determines the amount of lift it can generate
The color of the wing creates a force that pushes the airplane upward
The shape of the wing causes the air to move faster over the top surface, creating lower pressure and generating lift.
What is the relationship between the speed of a fluid and its pressure according to Bernoulli's principle?
The speed of a fluid and its pressure are directly related.
The speed of a fluid and its pressure are inversely related.
The speed of a fluid has no effect on its pressure.
The speed of a fluid and its pressure are only related in a vacuum.
