Bernoulli's equation describes the _______________?
Correct answer: A. Mechanical energy balance in potential flow
- A. Mechanical energy balance in potential flow
- B. Kinetic energy balance in laminar flow
- C. Mechanical energy balance in turbulent flow
- D. Mechanical energy balance in boundary layer
Explanation
Bernoulli's equation is a mechanical-energy balance for steady, incompressible, frictionless flow, commonly represented as potential flow. Viscous losses would require an extended energy equation rather than the basic Bernoulli form.
