Correct option is C
The continuity equation in fluid dynamics expresses the conservation of mass in a flowing fluid. For an compressible fluid (where density can vary ), the mass flow rate must remain the same from one cross-section to another. This can be represented by the equation:
For an incompressible fluid, the density (ρ)cancels out, simplifying the equation to:
This form of the equation relates the product of area and velocity (volume flow rate) at two different cross-sections of a pipe or duct.
