Curated OER
Buoyancy and Viscosity
Some of these beautiful diagrams should help your students understand the connections between pressure and flight. Pressure and density are also discussed, and a number of links are included to give fantastic interactive examples of...

Windy Tunnel
Lift—it is about the wing's attack. Using a virtual wind tunnel, pupils investigate wing shape and angle of attack. Learners use worksheets to record their observations and to convert verbal relationships into mathematical equations in...
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
Forces in Fluids
For this forces in fluids worksheet, students identify the principles behind the forces acting upon objects in fluids that make them float, lift and spray.
Curated OER
Come Fly With Me
Students apply the Bernoulli Principle. In this flight lesson, students design and test a glider.
Curated OER
A Bernoulli Levitator
Students examine the Bernoulli Principle. They explore how they can suspend an object in the air by blowing down on it.
Curated OER
PHYSICS OF FLIGHT
Ninth graders study the basic principles of flight, including the Bernoulli Principle and Newton's Laws. They construct and study model aircraft
