Bernoulli's continuity equation is a principle in fluid dynamics that states that the product of the cross-sectional area and velocity of a fluid remains constant along a streamline, assuming no energy losses or gains.
Fluid Dynamics: The study of how fluids (liquids and gases) behave when they are in motion.
Streamline: A line that represents the path followed by particles in a fluid flow without any crossing or mixing.
Flow Rate: The volume of fluid passing through a given point per unit time.
