Options
- Aenergy
- Bangular momentum
- Cmass
- Dmomentum
Correct answer
A. energy
Step-by-step solution
Bernoulli's theorem states that for an incompressible, non-viscous fluid in steady flow, the sum of pressure energy, kinetic energy, and potential energy per unit volume remains constant along a streamline. The equation is given by P + 1 2 v^2 + gh = constant . This is a direct consequence of the work-energy theorem applied to fluid flow. Therefore, Bernoulli's theorem is based upon the principle of conservation of energy.
