Correct Answer - Option 4 : u = cx ; v = -cy
Explanation:
Continuity equation for a two – dimensional flow of an in compressible fluid is
\(\frac{{\partial u}}{{\partial x}} + \frac{{\partial v}}{{\partial y}} = 0\)
For option a: \(\frac{\partial }{{\partial x}}\left( {2{x^2} + 3{y^3}} \right) + \frac{\partial }{{\partial y}}\left( { - 3xy} \right) = 4x - 3x = x \ne 0\;\)
For option b: \(\frac{\partial }{{\partial x}}\left( {3x - y\;} \right) + \frac{\partial }{{\partial y}}\left( {2x + 3y} \right) = 3 + 3 \ne o\)
For option c: \(\frac{\partial }{{\partial x}}\left( {Asin\;xy} \right) + \frac{\partial }{{\partial y}}\left( { - A\sin xy} \right) = Aycosxy - Axcosxy \ne 0\)
For option d: \(\frac{\partial }{{\partial x}}\left( {{c_x}} \right) + \frac{\partial }{{\partial y}}\left( { - cy} \right) = c - c = 0\)
⇒ Option d satisfy the continuity equation
