Consider a small control volume V with the surface dS with a normal vector \(\vec{n}\). This moves in a fluid flow in time Δt into another position at a velocity \(\vec{V}\) (V in the diagram). What is the change in volume of this small control volume ΔV?
(a) \([(\vec{V}\Delta t).\vec{n}]\)
(b) \([(\vec{V}\Delta t).\vec{n}]dS\)
(c) \([(\vec{V}\Delta t)]dS\)
(d) \([(\vec{V}).\vec{n}]dS\)
I had been asked this question in a job interview.
