← ScienceWhich pressure change occurs when incompressible fluid velocity halves through a Venturi meter?
A)Increases the static pressure✓
B)Decreases the stagnation pressure
C)Maintains the kinetic energy
D)Increases dynamic viscosity notably
💡 Explanation
Pressure increases following Bernoulli's equation because the kinetic energy decreases due to halved velocity, which necessitates corresponding pressure increase therefore, static pressure elevations result, rather than stagnation changes or viscosity shifts that depend on different factors in the flow.
