Correct Answer - Option 2 : s-1

CONCEPT:

  • Velocity gradient: The difference of velocity of fluid layers that are adjacent to each other is known as velocity gradient.

\(velocity~gradient= {\Delta v\over \Delta x}\)

EXPLANATION:

The velocity gradient is given by:

\(velocity~gradient= {\Delta v\over \Delta x}\)

So the unit of velocity gradient = \( {meter/sec \over meter}=sec^{-1}\)

Hence the correct answer is option 2.
