The relation P = Pa + rho g h is exact for which kind of fluid?
ACompressible gas
BIncompressible fluid
CTurbulent fluid
DFast moving fluid
Answer & Solution
Correct answer: B. Incompressible fluid
The derivation takes density as uniform, which holds for liquids because they are largely incompressible.
