Answer
The correct answer is:
(d) an incompressible, nonviscous, nonturbulent fluid
Work Step by Step
Bernoulli's equation applies to an incompressible fluid. The density of the fluid must be constant (or nearly constant) under different pressures.
Bernoulli's equation applies to a nonviscous fluid. The fluid must not lose energy due to friction from viscous forces.
Bernoulli's equation applies to a nonturbulent fluid. The flow of the fluid must be smooth as it flows forward and not lose energy due to sideways motion or turbulent currents.
The correct answer is:
(d) an incompressible, nonviscous, nonturbulent fluid
