Why can two streamlines in steady flow never cross?
AFluid would stop
BPressure would vanish
CDensity would double
DA point gets two speeds
Answer & Solution
Correct answer: D. A point gets two speeds
At a crossing point a fluid particle would need two different velocities at once, which is impossible.
