Total acceleration has the same value as convective acceleration in case of unsteady flow.

(a) True

(b) False

This question was posed to me during an online exam.

This is a very interesting question from Velocity and Acceleration topic in section Kinematics of Flow and Ideal Flow of Fluid Mechanics

Best answer

The correct choice is (b) False

For explanation I would say: Total acceleration has the same value as convective acceleration in case of steady flow as local acceleration value becomes zero.
