NEET Physics Pressure in Fluids Assertion Reason Question
Assertion (A): In a steady flow, the pressure at any point within the fluid remains constant over time. | Reason (R): Streamlines in a steady flow provide a stationary map of fluid flow, indicating that the flow pattern does not change with time.
Both A and R are true, and R is the correct explanation of A.
Both A and R are true, but R is not the correct explanation of A.
A is true but R is false.
A is false.
Correct Answer
Detailed Explanation
In steady flow, the flow pattern does not change with time, making streamlines stationary. However, pressure can vary along different streamlines even in steady flow.
