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.
