What if I select datum line such that it is half above the centre line and half belelow the centre line and pipe is inclined then HGL line may come below centre line?

Hydraulic gradient line is always above the centre line of the pipe. It will never below the centre line of the pipe. So the answer is false.

Yes, true is the correct answer.

False, because HGL Is always Above the Mean line By Velocity Head V2/2g.

According to me, True is the right answer.

It should be above or below HGL.

The central line of the pipe will give only static head but hydraulic gradient line will give static head+pressure head so I think hydraulic gradient line must above the pipe central line. Am I right?

True is the correct answer. I too agree.
