Curated OER
Bubble-ology and Bernoulli
Learners explore aerodynamics and Bernoulli's principle by devising ways to keep bubbles aloft.
Curated OER
Bernoulli Principle
The class conducts a simple experiment to demonstrate the Bernoulli Principle. After completing the experiment, they will discuss their findings. To prep for this activity, appropriate resource material on the Bernoulli Principle will be...
Curated OER
By Bernoulli, Where's Gravity?
Students observe a 1/4 inch by 2 inch piece of paper that is held vertically downward under the bottom lip, noting that the paper is pulled down by gravity. They predict what happens to the paper if air is blown out. After air is blown,...
Curated OER
Aeronautics: Bernoulli's Principle
Learners explore physics by participating in a science activity in class. In this flight properties lesson, students identify Bernoulli's principle of flight and his theory of statics and motion. Learners conduct a demonstration by...
Curated OER
Have a Ball with Bernoulli II
Third graders explore the work of Daniel Bernoulli through experiment and background information. In this Bernoulli lesson, 3rd graders participate in air pressure experiments. Students record their observations of the...
Curated OER
Updrafts in Action
Learners examine how wind can suspend rain and hail in clouds. They focus on safety precautions they can take to protect them from the hazards of thunderstorms.
Curated OER
Relational Causality
Pupils explore the concept of Bernoullii's Principle and how it behaves. Have each student fold the piece of paper in half. Then have them place the paper like a tent on a smooth surface. Have them blow under it (they can use a straw if...
Curated OER
How Things Fly
Students conduct a series of hands-on experiments that help them explain the role of lift in fixed-wing flight. They observe the flow of air and water around several surfaces and then consider the dynamics of airflow around an aircraft...
Curated OER
Flight Home
Young scholars experiment to investigate the role in fixed-wing flight. They watch as air and water flow around surfaces to examine the dynamics of airflow around an aircraft wing.

Ucar: Up and Away Bernoulli's Way
Young scholars observe the Bernoulli Principle in action: as the velocity of a fluid increases, the pressure exerted by that fluid decreases.
