Question

_________ proves that the static pressure is maximum when the velocity is zero

(a) Laws of Thermodynamics

(b) Bernoulli’s Equation

(c) Hooke’s law

(d) Principle of continuity

I got this question during a job interview.

I'm obligated to ask this question of Stagnation Properties topic in portion Compressible Flow of Fluid Mechanics

Answer 1

The correct answer is (b) Bernoulli’s Equation

For explanation I would say: Bernoulli’s equation proves that the static pressure is maximum when the velocity is zero. Bernoulli’s principle states that a rise in the speed of a fluid occurs simultaneously with a drop in pressure or a drop in the fluid’s potential energy. It is named after Daniel Bernoulli, who stated it.
