There is confusion over this because "law" and "theory" mean very different things in every day life compared to science. A "law" is just an outdated term for "theory." Theories are explanations of a phenomenon that have undergone rigorous experiments by scientists. A law is no more scientifically valid than a theory in science.

A principle is usually more specific than a theory. For instance, you have the Theory of Quantum Mechanics and within that, you have Pauli's exclusion principle.

Bernoullis principle about air velocity and pressure?

velocity and pressure have inverse relation. when velocity increases then pressure at that point decrease and vice versa.


How does air act like a fluid as it has speed?

because it flows from cold to warm areas and around solid objects. Which is what bernoullis principle is based on. the basis of flight..


Why is an airplane able to fly because of bernoullis principal?

That's "principle", not "principal". The idea is that the airplane's wings are shaped in such a way that the air moves faster on the top than on the bottom. As a result - and applying Bernoulli's principle - there is less pressure on the top of the wings.

What is the principle that a law may not be implemented retrospectively?

The principle you are looking for is that a law may not be implemented "retroactively," not "retrospectively." This principle means that you cannot implement a law, and then apply it to cases that occurred before the law was implementd.
