Answer:
The correct option is;
False
Step-by-step explanation:
The unit of pressure, P = Pascals = N/m²
The unit of volume, V = m³
The unit of power = N·m/s
Therefore, we have;
P × V = N/m² × m³ = N·m = The unit of work done by the fluid
The power of the fluid = (The unit of work done by the fluid)/Time
∴ Fluid power = N/m² × m³/Δt = N/m² × V/Δt = P × V/Δt
Where;
V/Δt = Q = The flow rate
Fluid power = P × V/Δt
Therefore, fluid power utilizes three variables, not two, to transmit power from one location to another, which are;
1) The pressure of the fluid
2) The volume of the fluid transmitted
3) The time in which the given volume is transmitted
The variables of volume and time combine to give the flow rate of the fluid
The correct option is false.
