Question:

Two Pitot-static tubes are shown. The one on the top is used to measure the velocity of air, and it is connected to an air-water manometer as shown. The one on the bottom is used to measure the velocity of water, and it too is connected to an air-water manometer as shown. If the deflection h is the same for both manometers, then one can conclude that 

(a) VA = Vw,

(b) VA > Vw, or 

(c) VA < Vw.
