Pick out the wrong statement?

A. A fluid mass is free from shearing forces, when it is made to rotate with a uniform velocity
B. Newton’s law of viscosity is not applicable to the turbulent flow of fluid with linear velocity
distribution

C. Laminar flow of viscous liquids is involved in the lubrication of various types of bearings
D. Rise of water in capillary tubes reduces with the increasing diameter of capillary tubes

Pick out the wrong statement?

A. The form drag is dependent upon the occurrence of a wake
B. The shear stress at any given cross-section of a pipe for steady flow (either laminar or turbulent) varies linearly as the radial distance
C. An ideal fluid is the one, which has negligible surface tension and obeys the Newton’s law of viscosity
D. Existence of the boundary layer in fluid flow is because of viscosity of the fluid.
