a linedrawn through the fluid so as to be at each point parallel to the direction in whichthe fluid is moving at that point. Thus if a pail of water be rotated about a verticalaxis, the stream lines are a system of concentric circles as shown in Fig. 12a, andFig. 12b represents the approximate… … The potential of a distributed vector.—In some simple cases of fluid motion it isgeometrically possible to look upon the stream lines as the lines of slope of animagined hill, the steepness of which represents the velocity of the fluid at eachpoint both in magnitude and in direction. The height of…
