Study Notes
Bernoulli's Principle
- An increase in the speed of a fluid happens at the same time as a decrease in pressure or a decrease in the fluid's potential energy.
How Wings Work
- Air moving faster exerts less pressure
- Air moving slower exerts more pressure
- Air that moves over a wing travels a longer distance and faster, which results in low pressure
- High pressure air below the wing pushes it upward
