Buoyancy and Fluid Flow Continuity Bernoulli's Equation Ideal Gases Laws of Thermodynamics Demonstrations These demonstrations include a picture, description, suggestion of use, equipment needed, and the approximate setup time. Siphon This demonstration illustrates how a siphon works.   Siphon Velocity of Efflux - Three Hole Can Experiment This demonstration shows that liquid pressure depends upon the depth of the liquid.   Velocity of Efflux - Three Hole Can Experiment Lecture Notes Pressure and Buoyancy These notes from Andre Duffy at Boston University include detailed explanations of background material, annotated diagrams and illustrations, and solved examples. (Scroll down in left pane to "Pressure; Fluid Statics.")   Pressure and Buoyancy Simulation Hydrostatic Pressure in Liquids This simulation shows how the hydrostatic pressure of a liquid is measured with a U-tube manometer.   Hydrostatic Pressure in Liquids See also...
