Text Solution

Verified by Experts
The correct answer is:
C

According to Bernoulli's theorem, in case of steady flow of incompressible and non-viscous

liquid through a tube of non-uniform cross-section, the sum of the pressure, the potential energy per unit volume and the kinetic energy per unit volume is same at every point in the tube, i.e.,

Dividing this expression by , we have

In this expression is called the 'pressure head', the 'velocity head' and h the 'gravitational head'.
