Question
Figure shows an ideal fluid flowing through a uniform cross-sectional tube in the vertical tube with liquid velocities vA & vB and pressure PA & PB at points A and B respectively. Knowing that tube offers no resistance to fluid flow then which of the following is true.


Options
A.PB > PA
B.PB < PA
C.PB = PA
D.none of these
Solution
vA = vB (since area is uniform)
From Bernoulli′s principle
⇒ PA < PB.
