Question

For the simple Bernoulli relation P + ½ρv² + ρgh = constant applied along a streamline, which statements are correct?

G1 Physics · Accepted Answer

The simple Bernoulli equation represents conservation of mechanical energy for an idealized flow. Its standard assumptions include steady flow and negligible viscosity. For an incompressible fluid, density remains constant. If a pump adds energy to the fluid, an additional pump-head or energy-input term must be included. Therefore A, B and C are correct, while D is false.
