Given below are two statements : In the light of the above statements, choose the most appropriate answer from the options given below.
- Statement I is correct but Statement II is incorrect.
- Both Statement I and Statement II are correct.
- Both Statement I and Statement II are incorrect.
- Statement I is incorrect but Statement II is correct.
Answer
(1) Statement I is correct but Statement II is incorrect.
Solution
Bernoulli: P+ gh+ 12 v2= constant
Statement I: v=0 everywhere P1+ gh1=P2+ gh2
P1-P2= g(h2-h1) Statement I is correct
Statement II: level difference h P1-P2= gh; on the axis P1+ 12 v12=P2+ 12 v22
gh= 12 (v22-v12) 2gh=v22-v12
A2<A1 v2>v1, so 2gh=v12-v22 is wrong Statement II is incorrect
Answer: (1)
