Your bump has nothing on my bumps

Oh BOY!!!!!! You sure got THAT right!!!!!!

is this thread dead yet?? did anyone sign the death certificate yet?

Oh it must be the wicked witch!!! Someone threw a bucket of water on it I think!!!!

HMMM purhaps a needs to make it to 50 pages 2 needs to be started LOL

Someone needs to keep it going...I'm starving, I'm going to lunch!!!

I'm surprised no one wanted to start a ground school here!!!

Whats for lunch??? I need some ideas too

well i was gone for awhile i had an egg sandwich an bacon with some coffee sounds more like breakfast but i skipped that so i had to make up for it

I eat breakfast stuff for any meal at all!!

I had a Sonic Jalapeno burger today though!!!

Guzzling that Dr Pepper now!!!!

Was it you what did the pushin’,
Put the stains upon the cushion,
Footsteps on the dashboard upside down.
Was it you, you slimy beggar
Got inside my girl Rebecca,
If it was you’d better leave this town.

Yes, ‘twas I what did the pushin’,
Put the stains upon the cushion,
Footsteps on the dashboard upside down.
But ever since I’ve had your daughter,
I’ve had trouble passing water,
So I guess we’re evens all around.

Does anyone know what the Bernouilli Principle is????

Nope, what is it?

It's basically what makes an airplane fly. Why a wing shape will produce lift.

is that the water displacment thing or something to do with fluid dynamics (trying to get this moved to science LOL)

Oh. Well, ya know, I have a lot of interests and I love learning new things but that is something I think will be way over my head. It involves math and science, I'm sure, and those always lose me

Bernoulli's Principle


This is an important principle involving the movement of a fluid through a pressure difference. Suppose a fluid is moving in a horizontal direction and encounters a pressure difference. This pressure difference will result in a net force, which by Newton's 2nd law will cause an acceleration of the fluid. The fundamental relation,
It is known as Bernoulli's principle. This is very similar to the statement we encountered before for a freely falling object, where the gravitational potential energy plus the kinetic energy was constant (i. e., was conserved).

Bernoulli's principle thus says that a rise (fall) in pressure in a flowing fluid must always be accompanied by a decrease (increase) in the speed, and conversely, if an increase (decrease) in , the speed of the fluid results in a decrease (increase) in the pressure. This is at the heart of a number of everyday phenomena. As a very trivial example, Bernouilli's principle is responsible for the fact that a shower curtain gets ``sucked inwards'' when the water is first turned on. What happens is that the increased water/air velocity inside the curtain (relative to the still air on the other side) causes a pressure drop. The pressure difference between the outside and inside causes a net force on the shower curtain which sucks it inward. A more useful example is provided by the functioning of a perfume bottle: squeezing the bulb over the fluid creates a low pressure area due to the higher speed of the air, which subsequently draws the fluid up.

Bernouilli's principle also tells us why windows tend to explode, rather than implode in hurricanes: the very high speed of the air just outside the window causes the pressure just outside to be much less than the pressure inside, where the air is still. The difference in force pushes the windows outward, and hence explode. If you know that a hurricane is coming it is therefore better to open as many windows as possible, to equalize the pressure inside and out.

Another example of Bernoulli's principle at work is in the lift of aircraft wings and the motion of ``curve balls'' in baseball. In both cases the design is such as to create a speed differential of the flowing air past the object on the top and the bottom - for aircraft wings this comes from the movement of the flaps, and for the baseball it is the presence of ridges. Such a speed differential leads to a pressure difference between the top and bottom of the object, resulting in a net force being exerted, either upwards or downwards.

Hope this helps.

Yeah.....it's one of the principles of fluid dynamics. It gets long and complicated, but I don't get into all that....just that it works. Here's a formal definition:

The relative air flow parallel to the top surface of an aircraft wing or helicopter rotor blade is faster than along the bottom surface. Bernoulli's principle states that the pressure on the surfaces of the wing or rotor blade will be lower above than below, and this pressure difference results in an upwards lift force.

Can't we go back to talking about ding dongs?

Ding dongs LOL what is the difference between them and ho-ho aside from the shape?

i wish i could jus spam it out for you i could it o i dunno maybe 10 minutes?
