MCQ

Water is flowing in streamliries motion through a tube with its axis horizontal Consider two points $A$ and $B$ in the tube at the same horizontal level:

The pressures at $A$ and $B$ are equal for any shape of the tube.
The pressures are never equal.
The pressures are equal if the tube has a uniform cross section.
The pressures may be equal even if the tube has a nonuniform cross section.

A
$A$ and $B$
B
$B$ and $C$
C
$B$ and $D$
✓
$C$ and $D$

✓

Answer

Correct option: D.

$C$ and $D$

In streamline flow in a tube, every particle of the liquid follows the path of its preceding particle and the velocity of all particles crossing a particular point is the

same. However, the velocity of the particles at different points in their path may not necessarily be the same. Thus, by applying Bernoulli's theorem and equation
of continuity, we can say that if the tube has a uniform cross section, the pressures will be equal; and if the tube has a non$-$uniform cross section, the pressures
may or may not be equal.
