Question
Pressure gradient in a static fluid is represented by (z-direction is vertically upwards, and x-axis is along horizontal,d is density of fluid) :
Options
A.
= − dg
= − dgB.
= dg
= dgC. = 0
= 0D. = 0
= 0Solution
In a static fluid, pressure remains same at the same level, ie, pressure do not vary with x-coordinate.
Hence (C).
Hence (C).
