🔍 Key Concepts

• Continuity of flow in a pipe (what happens to speed when the same volume must pass through a smaller area) • Bernoulli’s principle (relationship between fluid speed and pressure in a streamline flow) • Difference between velocity and pressure in a constricted section

💭 Think About

• When a fluid moves through a pipe that suddenly becomes narrower, what must happen to the speed of the fluid so that the same amount of fluid gets through each second? • According to Bernoulli’s principle, when the speed of a fluid increases along a streamline, what typically happens to its static pressure? • Try pairing the correct combination: increased speed goes with what kind of pressure change, and decreased speed goes with what kind of pressure change?

✅ Before You Answer

• Be clear on whether velocity increases or decreases in the narrower section of the tube. • Be clear on whether pressure increases or decreases when velocity increases, per Bernoulli’s principle. • Eliminate any option where both velocity and pressure change in a way that conflicts with continuity or Bernoulli’s principle.

Question 1 of 20

Which of the following statements concerning fluid flow is true?

If a fluid flowing through a tube reaches a constriction or narrowing of the tube, the velocity of the fluid flowing through the restriction increases and the pressure increases.

If a fluid flowing through a tube reaches a constriction or narrowing of the tube, the velocity of the fluid flowing through the restriction increases and the pressure decreases.

If a fluid flowing through a tube reaches a constriction or narrowing of the tube, the velocity of the fluid flowing through the restriction decreases and the pressure increases.

If a fluid flowing through a tube reaches a constriction or narrowing of the tube, the velocity of the fluid flowing through the restriction decreases and the pressure decreases.
