Bernoulli's equation can not be applied when the flow is

  1. a)rotational

  2. b)turbulent

  3. c)unsteady

  4. d)all of these

B Correct answer
Explanation

Bernoulli's equation requires steady, incompressible, inviscid flow along a streamline. Turbulent flow is unsteady by definition and involves significant energy dissipation due to eddies, violating Bernoulli's assumptions. Rotational flows can also violate the irrotational requirement.
