The given answer C is correct as momentum is also considered.

Satyam singh said:   9 years ago
Can some explain how answer C is correct?

Rvv said:   9 years ago
Yes, agree D is correct answer.

Minor losses due to sudden expansion By bernoulli's eq.
h=(v1^ 2-v2^2/2g)-(p1-p2/$g).

And by momentum eq,

(p1-p2/$g)=v2(v2-v1)/g and put the value in above eq,

Then,
h=(v1-v2)^2/2g.

I Think that Answer is D.

Becoz according to Bernoulli's Equation.

H = P1/wg-p2/wg = (v1^2-v2^2)/2g.
