Great diagram Alcan.....thanks.

Here's is something I want to throw out.....

There is certainly smarter people on this forum than me, but......

"Bernoulli's Law" states that when the velocity of a fluid increases, its pressure decreases. So if I was to move my watch thru the water, the velocity of the fluid(water) would increase over the surface of the watch, therefore if Mr. Bernoulli is correct........would the pressure of the fluid not decrease??? Laws of Physics dont lie...

Can we change the water pressure by moving our watch thru water?
