Bernoulli's Principle Quiz

Bernoulli's principle can be derived from the principle of conservation of energy by considering the steady flow of a fluid and the constant sum of kinetic energy, potential energy, and internal energy in the absence of viscous forces.

The Swiss mathematician and physicist Daniel Bernoulli published Bernoulli's principle in its original form in his book Hydrodynamica in 1738.

Bernoulli's principle states that an increase in the speed of a fluid occurs simultaneously with a decrease in static pressure or the fluid's potential energy. This relationship between pressure, speed, and height is based on the conservation of energy in a fluid, where an increase in fluid speed leads to an increase in kinetic energy and a decrease in potential energy and internal energy.
