NEET Physics Question - Solid and Fluids

Assertion (A): In streamline flow streamlines never intersect each other.

Reason (R): If streamline intersect then their must two velocities of fluid particle at the point of intersection, which is impossible.

(1) Both (A) & (R) are true and the (R) is the correct explanation of the (A)

(2) Both (A) & (R) are true but the (R) is not the correct explanation of the (A)

(3) (A) is true but (R) is false

(4) Both (A) and (R) are false

Assertion (A) is true by definition of streamline flow.

Reason (R) is true because intersection would imply multiple velocity vectors at a single point, which is physically impossible.

(R) correctly explains (A).
