Abstract
This article provides information on how to measure gravitational acceleration using Bernoulli's equation. It introduces two methods for estimating g using experimental data, one involving measuring the change in water level over time and the other measuring the horizontal distance traveled by a water stream. The article explains the theory behind Bernoulli's equation and Torricelli's law, and discusses the importance of known experimental conditions and constants. The results of an experiment conducted to measure the height and horizontal distance of a water stream are also presented. Overall, this article offers valuable insights for those interested in understanding and measuring gravitational acceleration using fluid mechanics. [Extracted from the article]
