Question

In a flow field, at the stagnation point

• A. Pressure is zero
• B. Velocity of fluid is zero
• C. Pressure head is equal to velocity
• D. None of these

Answer 1

Answer:

B. Velocity of fluid is zero

At the stagnation point in a flow field, the velocity of fluid is zero. This is because it is the point where the static pressure is highest and the velocity is at its minimum.
