Step-by-Step Analysis
We are evaluating when flow is steady, given a set of statements about flow behavior. Option a: 'flow velocity in a pipe is inversely proportional to flow area.' In a steady, incompressible flow, continuity implies that the volumetric flow rate Q is constant along a pipe, Q = A*v. Therefore, if the cross-sectional area A decreases, the velocity v must increase p......Login to view full explanation
