The Correct Option is A

Solution and Explanation

The aerofils are so designed that $P_{\text {upper side }}< P_{\text {lower side }}$ so that the aerofils get a lifting force in upward direction. According to Bernoulli's theorem, where the pressure is large, the velocity will be minimum or vice-versa. Thus, $ v_{\text {upper side }} > v_{\text {lower side }}$

Bernauli Theorem

In fluid dynamics, Bernoulli's principle states that an increase in the speed of a fluid occurs simultaneously with a decrease in static pressure or a decrease in the fluid's potential energy. The principle is named after Daniel Bernoulli who published it in his book Hydrodynamica in 1738.
