In deriving Bernoulli's equation, fluid is assumed to be________________?
Correct answer: A. Incompressible, frictionless, steady, along a streamline
- A. Incompressible, frictionless, steady, along a streamline
- B. Uniform, steady, incompressible, along a streamline
- C. Steady, density being pressure dependent, frictionless
- D. None of these
Explanation
Bernoulli's equation in its basic form assumes steady, incompressible, frictionless flow along a streamline. Uniform flow is not the essential assumption, while allowing density to depend on pressure contradicts incompressibility.
