Fluid Mechanics - Coggle Diagram
Fluid Mechanics
Aerodynamics- Related to the flow of air around a projectile, which can influence the speed and direction of an object.
Affected by
-
Lift
Bernoulli's principle - a high velocity on top of an object creates a low pressure zone, which creates lift due to diffusion
-
Spin Forces
A spin to one side creates a lower pressure, which affects the flight of the ball due to diffusion

-
Hydrodynamics - Related to the flow of water around a projectile, which can influence the speed and direction of the object
-
Affected by
Drag
Water is 800 times denser than air, meaning that drag force is significantly stronger
Lift
Hydroplanes use lift to travel at high speed, by lifting the boat out of the water
