My understanding of Bernoulli's Principle is something like this: Pressure is inversely proportional to velocity. Fluid flowing through smaller cross-sectional area has increase velocity & decrease in pressure.
Also P = F/A... so would force also decrease for fluid going through small area with increased velocity & decrease pressure.
How does that relate to water coming out of a hose with a nozzle?? By Bernoulli's Principle: speed increases hence pressure decreases. So would the force coming out of the nozzle also decrease due to small area and decreased pressure?? Why is that you feel a greater force from a hose with a nozzle than one with a greater diameter.
