PHET Interactive Simulations: Fluid Pressure and Flow
Free
Topics
Pressure
Water
Fluids
Fluid Dynamics
Bernoulli
Density
Description
Explore pressure in the atmosphere and underwater. Reshape a pipe to see how it changes fluid flow speed. Experiment with a leaky water tower to see how the height and water level determine the water trajectory.
Sample Learning Goals
Investigate how pressure changes in air and water.
Discover how you can change pressure.
Predict pressure in a variety of situations.
Determine how fluid motion affects the pressure.
Figure out how to convert water pressure to water velocity.
