Answer

Yes, Bernoulli had an impact on 20th-century technology. His work on fluid dynamics helped to develop the design of aircraft, rockets, and other vehicles. Bernoulli's principle states that as the speed of a fluid increases, its pressure decreases. This principle is used in the design of aircraft wings, which are curved to create lift.
