Read the following statements and choose the CORRECT option with respect to the velocity potential function in the Kinematics of a fluid flow.
(i) If the velocity potential exists, the flow should be irrotational.
(ii) If the velocity potential satisfies the Laplace equation, it represents the possible steady incompressible irrotational flow.
1
(i) is TRUE and (ii) is TRUE
2
(i) is TRUE and (ii) is FALSE
3
(i) is FALSE and (ii) is TRUE
4
(i) is FALSE and (ii) is FALSE
