Question
A common misconception states that this principle is the reason why airplanes can fly due to the shape of their wings causing lift. For 10 points each:
[10m] Name this principle, which states that as the speed of a fluid, such as air or water, increases, its pressure decreases, and vice versa.
ANSWER: Bernoulli’s Principle
[10e] In the equation for Bernoulli’s principle, pressure can also be replaced with this form of energy that is contrasted with kinetic energy.
ANSWER: potential energy
[10h] Bernoulli’s principle can only be applied to fluids and gases with a low value for this quantity. This quantity is equal to the ratio of the speed of an object in a medium to the speed of sound in it.
ANSWER: Mach number
