Bernoullis PrincipleStudent Success Criteria

• I can state Bernoulli's principle, explain some
  of its applications, and conduct an investigation
  to demonstrate it.

3
Bernoullis Principle

• SPH4C

4
Fluid Flow

• The speed at which a fluid flows depends on the
  diameter of the pipe.
• In the diagram below, the fluid must flow more
  quickly in section B than in section A.

5
Pressure Differences

• The water must accelerate as it moves from A to
  B. This acceleration must be caused by a force.
• This force is caused by the difference in
  pressure between the two regions.

6
Bernoullis Principle

• Where the speed of a fluid is low, the pressure
  is high.
• Where the speed of a fluid is high, the pressure
  is low.

7
Lift

• The upward force, or lift, on an airplane wing
  can be explained using Newtons 3rd Law of Motion
  and Bernoullis Principle.

8
Lift and Newton

• As the wing moves forward, air deflects off the
  bottom of the wing the wing pushes on the air.
  The air therefore pushes back (the reaction
  force).

9
Lift and Bernoulli

• The speed of the air near the deflection is less
  than the speed of the flow of air over the wing.
  
• Therefore the pressure under the wing is higher
  than the pressure over the wing.
