Aeronautics: Bernoulli's Principle

Curated and Reviewed by Lesson Planet
This Aeronautics: Bernoulli's Principle lesson plan also includes:
  • Project
  • Vocabulary
  • Join to access all included materials

Students explore physics by participating in a science activity in class. In this flight properties lesson, students identify Bernoulli's principle of flight and his theory of statics and motion. Students conduct a demonstration by moving air over a strip of paper in their textbooks.
