    Bernoullis principle is based on the law of conservation of:

    A)  mass

    B)                                         energy

    C)         angular momentum      

    D)  linear momentum

    Correct Answer: B

    Solution :

                    When an incompressible and non-viscous liquid (or gas) flows in stream-lined motion from one place to another, then at every point of its path the total energy per unit volume (pressure energy + kinetic energy + potential energy) is constant. That is, \[P+\frac{1}{2}\rho {{v}^{2}}+\rho gh=constant\] where P is pressure, \[\rho \] is density, g is gravity, v is velocity and h is height. Thus, Bernoullis theorem is in one way the principle of conservation of energy for a flowing liquid (or gas).
