For a steady and incompressible flow, the velocity field (πβ ) in Cartesian (π₯, π¦, π§) coordinate system is given as: πβ = 5π₯πβππ¦π+ 3π Here, π, π, and π are unit vectors along x, y, and z directions, respectively and π is a constant. Which one of the following options is the correct value of π that satisfies the conservation of mass for the given velocity field?
- A. 5
- B. β5
- C. 8
- D. 2
Answer: A. 5
