Principles of Flighteasy#501
Bernoulli's principle states that in a streamline flow, an increase in velocity is accompanied by:
A
A decrease in static pressure
CorrectB
An increase in static pressure
C
No change in pressure
D
An increase in density
Explanation
Bernoulli's equation shows that as fluid velocity increases, static pressure decreases (assuming incompressible, inviscid flow).
