D. Higher fluid velocity at that region (smaller effective area, more flow per unit area)
11.
In Fig 9.7(b) of NCERT, three regions P, R, Q are indicated in a streamline flow tube. It is clear that A_R > A_Q. Therefore, comparing velocities at R and Q:
A.
v_R Γ v_Q = constant
B.
v_R = v_Q
C.
v_R > v_Q
D.
v_R < v_Q (fluid accelerates from R to Q as the tube narrows)
