TL;DR
Velocity at a reservoir
Hi there,

I am solving a problem which requires me to use Bernoulli's equation and I have across a hint that says that "velocity at the reservoir is negligible because the reservoir is large" and I do not understand what that means exactly. How is velocity at a reservoir negligible?

Nevermind, i had forgotten about the continuity principle.
