Mass of the fluid entering from side S

6.1 Application of Bernoullis principle 

Magnus effect : When a spinning ball is thrown, it deviates from its usual path in flight. This effect is called Magnus effect and plays an important role in tennis, cricket and soccer, etc., as by applying appropriate spin the moving ball can be made to curve in any desired direction.

If a ball is moving from left to right and also spinning about a horizontal axis perpendicular to the direction of motion as shown in figure, then relative to the ball air will be moving from right to left.

The resultant velocity of air above the ball will be (V rw) while below it (V -rw) (shown figure). So in accordance with Bernoulli's principle pressure above the ball will be less than below it. Due to this difference of pressure an upward force will act on the ball and hence the ball will deviate from its usual path OA0 and will hit the ground at A1 following the path OA1 (figure shown) i.e., if a ball is thrown with back spin, the pitch will curve less sharply prolonging the flight.

Similarly if the spin is clockwise, i.e., the ball is thrown with top-spin, the force due to pressure difference will act in the direction of gravity and so the pitch will curve more sharply shortening the flight.

Bernoulli`s Equation | Physics Class 11 - NEET

Furthermore, if the ball is spinning about a vertical axis, the curving will be sideays as shown in figure. producing the so called out swing or in swing.

Action of Atomiser : The action of aspirator, carburettor, paint-gun, scent-spray or insect-sprayer is based on Bernoulli's principle. In all these by means of motion of a piston P in a cylinder C high speed air is passed over a tube T dipped in liquid L to be sprayed. High speed air creates low pressure over the tube due to which liquid (paint, scent, insecticide or petrol) rises in it and is then blown off in very small droplets with expelled air.

Bernoulli`s Equation | Physics Class 11 - NEET

Working of Aeroplane : This is also based on Bernouilli's principle. The wings of the aeroplane are having tapering as shown in figure. Due to this specific shape of wings when the aeroplane runs, air passes at higher speed over it as compared to its lower surface. This difference of air speeds above and below the wings, in accordance with Bernoulli's principle, creates a pressure difference, due to which an upward force called ' dynamic lift' ( = pressure difference × area of wing) acts on the plane. If this force becomes greater than the weight of the plane, the plane will rise up.

Range (R) 

Let us find the range R on the ground.

Considering the vertical motion of the liquid.

(H -h) = Bernoulli`s Equation | Physics Class 11 - NEET or Bernoulli`s Equation | Physics Class 11 - NEET

Now, considering the horizontal motion,

R = vt or Bernoulli`s Equation | Physics Class 11 - NEET or Bernoulli`s Equation | Physics Class 11 - NEET

From the expression of R, following conclusions can be drawn,

(i) Rh = RH -h 

as Bernoulli`s Equation | Physics Class 11 - NEET and Bernoulli`s Equation | Physics Class 11 - NEET

This can be shown as in Figure

(ii) R is maximum at H/2 and Rmax = H.

Bernoulli`s Equation | Physics Class 11 - NEET

Proof : R= 4 (Hh – h2)
For R to be maximum.  Bernoulli`s Equation | Physics Class 11 - NEET

or H - 2h = 0 or h = H/2

That is, R is maximum at h=H/2

and Bernoulli`s Equation | Physics Class 11 - NEET 

Proved

Ex.16 A cylindrical dark 1 m in radius rests on a platform 5 m high. Initially the tank is filled with water up to a height of 5 m. A plug whose area is 10–4 m2 is removed from an orifice on the side of the tank at the bottom Calculate 

(a) initial speed with which the water flows from the orifice 

(b) initial speed with which the water strikes the ground and 

(c) time taken to empty the tank to half its original volume 

(d) Does the time to be emptied the tank depend upon the height of stand.

Sol. The situation is shown in figure

(a) As speed of flow is given by

6.1 Venturimeter

Bernoulli`s Equation | Physics Class 11 - NEET

Figure shows a venturimeter used to measure flow speed in a pipe of non - uniform cross-section. We apply Bernoulli's equation to the wide (point 1) and narrow (point 2) parts of the pipe, with h1 = h2

Bernoulli`s Equation | Physics Class 11 - NEET
From the continuity equation

Bernoulli`s Equation | Physics Class 11 - NEET
Substituting and rearranging, we get
Bernoulli`s Equation | Physics Class 11 - NEET

Because A1 is greater than A2 , v2 is greater than v1 and hence the pressure P2 is less than P1. A net force to the right acceleration the fluid as it enters the narrow part of the tube (called throat) and a net force to the left slows as it leaves. The pressure difference is also equal to ρgh, where h is the difference in liquid level in the two tubes. Substituting in Eq. (1), we get

Bernoulli`s Equation | Physics Class 11 - NEET

6.2 Pivot Tube

It is a device used to measure flow velocity of fluid. It is a U shaped tube which can be inserted in a tube or in the fluid flowing space as shown in figure shown. In the U tube a liquid which is immiscible with the fluid is filled upto a level C and the short opening M is placed in the fluid flowing space against the flow so that few of the fluid particles entered into the tube and exert a pressure on the liquid in limb A of U tube. Due to this the liquid level changes as shown in the figure show.

Bernoulli`s Equation | Physics Class 11 - NEET

At end B fluid is freely flowing, which exert approximately negligible pressure on this liquid. The pressure difference at ends A and B can be given by measuring the liquid level difference h as 

It is a gas, then 

PA - PB = ρhg

It if the liquid of density , then 

PA - PB = h(ρ - ρg)g

Now if we apply Bernoulli's equation at the ends A and B we'll have

Bernoulli`s Equation | Physics Class 11 - NEET

Now by using equations, we can evaluate the velocity v, with which the fluid is flowing.

Note : Pivot tube is also used to measure velocity of aeroplanes with respect to wind. It can be mounted at the top surface of the plain and hence the velocity of wind can be measured with respect to the plane.

6.3 SIPHON

It is a pipe used to drain liquid at a lower height but the pipe initially rises and then comes down 

Bernoulli`s Equation | Physics Class 11 - NEET

let velocity of outflow is v and the pipe is of uniform cross-section A. Applying Bernoulli's Equation between P (top of tank) and R (Opening of pipe) we get 

Bernoulli`s Equation | Physics Class 11 - NEET

⇒ Bernoulli`s Equation | Physics Class 11 - NEET

here velocity is considered zero at P since area of tank is very large compared to the area of pipe

Bernoulli`s Equation | Physics Class 11 - NEET

Naturally for siphon to work 

h> 0

Now as area of pipe is constant so by equation of continuity

as Av = constant so velocity of flow inside siphon is also constant between Q and R

(P + pgh + 1/2 pv2)Q = (P + pgh + 1/2 pv2)R ⇒ PQ + pgh2 = P0 - pgh1 (v is same)

⇒ PQ = P0 - Pg (h1 + h2) as PQ = 0    ⇒ P0 > pg (h1 + h2) means (h1 + h2) should not be more than P/pg for siphon to work
