4 cards from this section. Quick, good the night before a test.
What is Bernoulli's equation used for?
Think about energy conservation in fluids.
Define a streamline.
Consider how water flows in a river.
What is the Bernoulli's equation primarily used for?
Consider what parts of flow are being analyzed.
True or False: Friction is negligible when applying Bernoulli's equation.
Think back about flow conditions!
A water tank is 5m high, and water is flowing out from a nozzle at the bottom. Using Bernoulli’s equation, calculate the speed of the exiting water.
Consider the potential energy converting to kinetic energy at the nozzle.
A pipe narrows from a diameter of 10 cm to 5 cm. Calculate the velocity increase using Bernoulli’s equation assuming no energy loss.
Remember that flow rate must remain constant across the pipe's cross-sections.
