Virginia SOL PHII.6

What students need to be able to do

• Develop and use models and mathematical representations to describe energy, pressure, temperature, and volume in real-world systems.
• Plan and conduct an investigation to predict relationships between fluid pressure, velocity, and elevation.
• Apply concepts of laminar fluid flow to real-world systems.
• Develop and use a model to explain how mechanical advantage can be made by confined fluids.
• Use data and evidence to explain fluid movement through a system by applying principles of conservation laws.
• Identify a simple problem in a system of fluid flow and justify a solution through the application of Bernoulli's principle.
