Assertion (A): The momentum integral equation can be solved without knowing the exact velocity profile.

Reason (R): It relates only integral quantities and the wall shear stress.

Select the correct answer from the options below.

  • A.Both A and R are true, and R is the correct explanation of A
  • B.Both A and R are true, but R is not the correct explanation of A
  • C.A is true but R is false
  • D.A is false but R is true

Answer: A

Both are true and the second explains the first. Because the equation is written in terms of integrals across the layer, any reasonable assumed profile closes it, which is exactly what the Pohlhausen method does. The accuracy then depends on how good that assumption is.
