Pick out the wrong statement about a streamline.
It is always parallel to the main direction of the fluid flow.
It is a line across which there is no flow and it is equivalent to a rigid boundary.
Streamlines intersect at isolated point of zero velocity and infintie velocity.
The fluid lying between any two streamlines can be considered to be in isolation and the streamline spacing varies inversely as the velocity.
