Practice question
Question
What is the primary condition for streamline flow to occur in a fluid?
Explanation
Streamline flow occurs when viscous forces dominate inertial forces, keeping fluid motion steady and layered. This requires a low velocity, below the critical speed where turbulence begins. As per NCERT, applying relevant law/formula with correct units and sign convention leads to Low velocity. This satisfies dimensional consistency and physical conditions given, so option B is scientifically correct.
