What is the name of the principle commemorated to Bernoulli?

  • Bernoulli's Principle

  • Hawking's Principle

  • Einstein's Principle

  • Newton's Principle

Answer

Bernoulli's principle states that as the velocity of a fluid increases, its pressure decreases. This is because the kinetic energy of the fluid increases as its velocity increases, and this kinetic energy must be balanced by a decrease in pressure. Bernoulli's principle is used to explain a variety of phenomena, such as how airplanes fly and how water flows through pipes.
