NEET Physics Bernoulli's Principle MCQ Question
Consider a diagram showing a fluid flowing steadily through a pipe with varying cross-section and height. The fluid is incompressible and flow is steady. Which of the following correctly identifies the relationship between pressure and velocity at different points along the pipe according to Bernoulli's Principle?
Pressure decreases as velocity increases.
Pressure remains constant regardless of velocity changes.
Velocity decreases as pressure increases.
Pressure and velocity are independent of each other.
Correct Answer
Detailed Explanation
Bernoulli's Principle states that in a steady flow of an incompressible fluid, as the velocity of the fluid increases, the pressure decreases, and vice versa. This is due to the conservation of energy in the fluid flow system.
