acco to bernoullis theorem, a liquid flowing in a an irregular pipe, exerts more pressure on the wider part....but loggically, pressure should be more in in narrow part as the area is less.....pls explain with reference to my logic!!!!!

Dear Shivam

pressure will depend only on area if Force remains then same.

For the case of fluid flow if you apply continuity equation then if area increases then velocity decreases to maintain constant rate of flow. if velocity decreases then pressure will increase according to energy conservation or bernoulli theorem.

 

All the best.
