Can two stramlines cross each other in a flowing liquid ? Explain.

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

No. If they do so it would mean that at the point of intersection of two tangents can be drawn, which will give us two directions of liquid flow at that point which is imposible because then the flow can never be streamlined.
