Bernoulli

The Columbia Encyclopedia, Sixth Edition

Bernoulli or Bernouilli , name of a family distinguished in scientific and mathematical history. The family, after leaving Antwerp, finally settled in Basel, Switzerland, where it grew in fame. Jacob, Jacques, or James Bernoulli, 1654-1705, became professor at Basel in 1687. One of the chief developers both of the ordinary calculus and of the calculus of variations , he was the first to use the word integral in solving Leibniz's problem of the isochronous curve. He wrote an important treatise on the theory of probability (1713) and discovered the series of numbers that now bear... Read more

Bernoulli's Principle
BERNOULLI'S PRINCIPLE CONCEPT Bernoulli's principle, sometimes known as Bernoulli's equation, holds that for fluids in an ideal state, pressure and density are inversely related: in other words, a slow-moving fluid exerts more pressure than a fast-movi... Read more
