SSC SSC JE Civil 2025 Mock Test Series (Paper 1 & Paper 2) Fluid Mechanics Flow Through Pipes Hydraulic Gradient Line and Total Energy Line
Select the correct option on the basis of the statements given below.
Statement I: For idealized Bernoulli's flow through a pipe, the Energy grade line is always horizontal and Hydraulic gradient line is parallel to the Energy grade line.
Statement II: Hydraulic gradient line is defined as the line which gives the sum of pressure head (p/γ) and datum head (z) of a flowing fluid in a pipe w.r.t some reference line.
1
Statement I is true, but statement II is false.
2
Both statements I and II are true.
3
Statement II is true, but statement I is false.
4
Both statements I and II are false.
