The pitot static tube does not measure the **static pressure** directly.

It measures total pressure and can be used to calculate the dynamic pressure, but it does not provide a direct measurement of static pressure by itself.

Pitot tube is a device used to measure the local or point velocity by measuring the difference between impact (dynamic) pressure and static pressure.

So, here option -B should be the right answer.

It measures the difference of static and impact pressure.

Pitot tube measure fluid velocity at a point.

It's also used to measure the velocities of submarines.

Pitot tubes can be used to measure fluid flow velocity by measuring static and dynamic pressure difference.

But it measures both static an impact pressure.

Pitot tube is used only measuring the velocity of fluid.

Pitot tube measures point velocity.
