Best answer
Correct choice is (a) Centrifugal

The best explanation: Centrifugal pumps are not a positive displacement pump. They are a subclass dynamic work absorbing turbo machinery. They are used to transport fluids. It transports fluid by conversion of rotational kinetic energy to hydrodynamic kinetic energy.
