This is a very simple explanation that I have given to my Grade 6 students. Bernoulli's Theory, which originally was applied to his research in fluids & medicine (particularly blood pressure), helps explain how planes fly. He discovered the principal that the pressure of a fluid decreases when its speed or velocity increase, this prinicpal was also later discovered to apply to air pressure as well. This helps us to understand that when a plane is speeding up for take off, the faster it goes the less air pressure is exerted on it and therefore the plane is able to 'lift-off' the ground and fly. A plane that does not obtain sufficient speed on the ground, for its size & weight, may not be able to take off successfully.

Can Bernoullis equation describe the flow of water that is cascading down a rock-strewn spillway Explain?

You cannot use Bernoulli's equation because the rocks would create a turbulent flow and you need a steady flow to use Bernoulli's equation. It could (in theory) but you would need accurate measurements of size shape and placement of each of the rocks involved. It would be a nightmare just to accumulate the data.


Bernoullis principle what characteristic of a moving fluid determines its pressure?

The speed of the fluid is what determines its pressure in relation to Bernoulli's principle. As the speed of the fluid increases, the pressure decreases according to the principle.
