(N/A) No,Bernoulli's equation is not unsteady. It is derived specifically for steady,incompressible,non-viscous,and irrotational flow of a fluid.
$1$. Steady Flow: The velocity,pressure,and density at any point in the fluid remain constant with respect to time.
$2$. Incompressible: The density of the fluid is constant.
$3$. Non-viscous: There is no internal friction or viscosity in the fluid.
$4$. Irrotational: The fluid particles do not rotate about their own axes.
Since the derivation assumes that the flow parameters do not change over time,the equation is applicable only to steady flow conditions.

The Bernoulli's equation is given by $p + \frac{1}{2} \rho v^{2} + h \rho g = k$,where $p =$ pressure,$\rho =$ density,$v =$ speed,$h =$ height of the liquid column,$g =$ acceleration due to gravity,and $k$ is a constant. The dimensional formula for $k$ is the same as that for:

Consider a water tank as shown in the figure. Its cross-sectional area is $0.4\, m^{2}$. The tank has an opening $B$ near the bottom whose cross-sectional area is $1\, cm^{2}$. $A$ load of $24\, kg$ is applied on the water at the top. When the height of the water level is $40\, cm$ above the bottom,the velocity of water coming out of the opening $B$ is $v\, ms^{-1}$. The value of $v$,to the nearest integer,is ......$m/s$. [Take value of $g$ to be $10\, ms^{-2}$]
