Bernoulli's principle

This principle humbled me as a young scientist and student pilot. I thought I knew everything, that I had an intuitive grasp of basic physics. It took me a long time to wrap my head around this one principle.

Same thing happens when high-pressure information passes through my low-pressure brain

This phenomenon is one of the most mind- fucking results in all physics to me. The fact that blowing air with high pressure through a tube with a restriction causes the air to decrease in pressure at the restricted part is so counterintuitive. My brain just will not understand how increasing the space in which a fluid can flow causes the pressure of the fluid to increase and vice versa.

I've just finished reading James Burke's superb book Connections, which I would recommend to anyone interested in the history of scientific ideas. In this book he explains how this principle was used to create carburettors, making possible the internal combustion engine and jet engines, and how the principle it could be used to measure the flow of a gas through a pipe. However, limited space only allowed him to give a brief overview of these things. The excellent demonstrations in your video make it easy to get my head around these concepts.

Great demonstrations of Bernoulli's principle! Seeing the effect in action helps to understand it.

demonstrating college level fluid dynamic physics with plastic and a cheap blower. I applaud your ability to demonstrate what so many professors rely on overly complicated texts and complex mathematics to explain. BRAVO!

You just made a carburetor.

Please make more videos. 🙏 Doing so will increase the likelihood of young minds coming across valuable information such as this. 🧠🧠🧠🧠🧠🧠🧠🧠🧠

Best explanation of Bernoulli's principle I came across on internet. Thank you so much!!

This video is awesome! It explains teh principle in a simple way, as well as showing how it works and demonstration of the use

That was the best lecture I have ever seen.

Beautiful video. What a cozy nice accent. I loved it.

The interesting part is that if you close the system, when you blow, pressure increases. However, when you open so that the air can flow, the pressure decrease the faster it goes.

This seems rather unintuitive, but you explained it very clearly. Thank you.

Right on smarty pants, well explained and demos. Nice job!

Excellent demonstrations. best wishes for your channel growth

Beautifully explained. One of the best videos on Bernoulli's principle on YouTube.

Very simplified demonstration of the basic principle of Bernoulli .I wish some body could have explained me in my school level in such a lucid language.

Venturi, excellent illustration.

This is counterintuitive. How did I live these whole years without knowing? How many more are out there that I think I know but I don't? Holy Castana!
