When area of cross-section of a pipe decreases, the velocity of flow of liquid

A

increases

B

decreases

C

becomes zero

D

viscosity

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
A
av = constan
`impliesaprop(1)/(v)`. When area of cross-section of a pipe decreases then the velocity of liquid increases.
