Assertion and Reason on Bernoulli’s theorem – Rankers Physics

Fluid Dynamics: Practice Problem & Solution

Assertion (A): Bernoulli's theorem is based on energy conservation. Reason (R): Bernoulli's theorem holds good for all liquids.  
Both Assertion & Reason are true and the reason is the correct explanation of the assertion.
Both Assertion & Reason are true but the reason is not the correct explanation of the assertion.
Assertion is true statement but Reason is false.
Both Assertion and Reason are false statements.

Short Solution (Best for NEET):

To solve this problem, we apply the core principles of Fluid Dynamics. Understanding the underlying formula is key to arriving at the correct answer below:

Bernoulli's theorem is derived from the law of conservation of energy (Assertion is true). It only holds good for ideal (non-viscous, incompressible) fluids, not all liquids (Reason is false).
