Testing Bernoulli's Law
Ivanov, Dragia; Nikolov, Stefan; Petrova, Hristina
Physics Education, v49 n4 p436-442 Jul 2014
In this paper we present three different methods for testing Bernoulli's law that are different from the standard "tube with varying cross-section." They are all applicable to high-school level physics education, with varying levels of theoretical and experimental complexity, depending on students' skills, and may even be useful for university-level educators. Our experiments are well-suited for use in project-based learning, either individually or as a single large project revolving around Bernoulli's law. We also present examples of data we have collected with our experimental setups.
