SPM Physics:AHA! Bernoulli Challenge: Fast Air, Low Pressure!

 


Why does a lorry move towards the barrier? It’s not suction, it’s physics. This comic shows the Bernoulli principle at work:

  1. Narrow gap → air speed increases.

  2. High speed → low pressure in the gap.

  3. Outside air slower → high pressure outside.

  4. Pressure difference exists.

  5. Resultant force pushes the lorry towards the barrier.

The exam trap: never say “the barrier sucks the lorry.” The correct explanation is high pressure outside pushes towards low pressure inside.

AHA! Not suction, but pressure push. Not by sight, but by INSIGHT!
