Bernoulli's principle explains why your shower curtain gets sucked inwards when you turn the water on.
*Surprisingly it has nothing to do with the temperature of the water, but the velocity it is moving at.

Bernoulli’s principle applies in nozzles, where flow accelerates and pressure drops as the tube diameter is reduced. It is also the principle behind orifice or Venturi flow meters. These meters measure the pressure difference between a low-speed fluid in an approach pipe and the high-speed fluid at the smaller orifice diameter to determine flow velocities and thus to meter the flow rate. Bernoulli’s principle is sometimes used to explain the net force in a system that includes a moving fluid, such as lift on an airplane wing, thrust of a ship’s propeller, or drifting of a spinning baseball. Although equations derived from the principle can be useful in modeling these systems, the principle technically only applies to systems that do not produce a net force.

Bernoulli's principle states that fluid velocity and pressure are inversely proportional, i.e. the faster a fluid moves, the less pressure it exerts.
During a tornado, the velocity of air outside a house i very high, while the velocity inside is about 0. The pressure inside the house is much higher than the pressure outside. That is why the roofs of houses tend to blow off in tornadoes.

You mean it is not the engineers that make planes fly, but your god? It is not the kerosene and the engines and wings, but the hand of god? Then why don't priests build planes but engineers? Why don't we just sit on a carpet and pray it to fly us anywhere we want? I tell you why. Your god does not exists. Sitting on a chair and pray for it to fly you somewhere does not and will never work. The process of humans finding out how they could build airplanes gave us (this does not include you) to a good understanding of how aerodynamics and flight mechanics work. If our knowledge about this were really wrong we would not be able to build reliable airplanes. Even the pope uses real airplanes and does not pray to god to fly him through the world. Also evolution is a fact.

An automotive carburetor. As air is drawn down through the venturi it speeds up, the pressure drops. Located in the area of lowest pressure is the opening into the fuel bowl, where fuel is drawn into the passing air; the air- fuel mixture is then pulled into each cylinder.

Remember to mention that in a closed system and flow is stopped or closed completely, the back pressure ceases to exist and all pressures in the system become equal...
