ViviFluid speed and fluid pressure are inversely related according to Bernoulli's principle. As fluid speed increases, fluid pressure decreases, and vice versa. This means that in a flowing fluid, areas of high speed will have lower pressure, and areas of low speed will have higher pressure.

How is wind speed related to pressure differential?
Wind speed is directly related to pressure differential. Air moves from areas of high pressure to areas of low pressure, creating wind. The stronger the pressure gradient (difference in pressure over distance), the faster the wind will blow.
What is the rule that states that as the speed of a moving fluid increases the pressure within the fluid decreases?
This rule is known as Bernoulli's principle. It states that as the speed of a fluid increases, the pressure within the fluid decreases, and vice versa. This principle is commonly used in fluid dynamics to explain phenomena such as lift on an airplane wing or the flow of water through a pipe.
What is stagnation pressure?
Static pressure is the pressure exerted by fluid in all directions, when it is in rest. Stagnation pressure is the sum of static and dynamic pressure of fluid in motion. Dynamic head is given by (velocity)^2/2*g.
Fluid always move from areas of pressure to pressure?
Actually, fluid flows from areas of high pressure to low pressure. This pressure difference creates a force that drives the fluid movement. Fluids naturally seek equilibrium by moving from regions of higher pressure to lower pressure.
Does Archimedes principle state that increasing the pressure on one spot of a fluid will increase the pressure everywhere else in the fluid?
No, Archimedes' principle states that an object immersed in a fluid experiences an upward buoyant force equal to the weight of the fluid it displaces. Increasing pressure at one spot in a fluid does not necessarily increase pressure everywhere else in the fluid.
