In the context of steady, inviscid, incompressible flows, consider the superposition of a uniform flow with speed U along the positive x-axis (from left to right), and a source of strength A located at the origin. Which one of the following statements is NOT true regarding the location of the stagnation point of the resulting flow?
A
It is located to the left of the origin
B
It moves closer to the origin for increasing A, while U is held constant
C
It moves closer to the origin for increasing U, while A is held constant
D
It is located along the x-axis

Correct : c
