Bernoulli's Equation

An incompressible fluid (ideal fluid) is flowing through non uniform cross-sectional tube PQ as shown in the figure from end P to end Q. If KPK_P and KQK_Q are the kinetic energy per unit volume of the fluid at end P and end Q respectively, then

Show answer and solution

Answer: (d)

  1. From the figure AP<AQA_P < A_Q; continuity APvP=AQvQA_P v_P = A_Q v_Q gives vP>vQv_P > v_Q.
  2. KE per unit volume K=12ρv2K = \frac{1}{2}\rho v^2, so KP>KQK_P > K_Q.
  3. So the answer is (d).
