Let's clarify:

Mass velocity
𝐺
=
𝜌
×
𝑉
G=ρ×V (density × velocity).

In steady flow through a constant cross-section, velocity
𝑉
V is constant.

Density
𝜌
ρ depends on pressure and temperature, especially for gases.

So mass velocity depends on both pressure and temperature.

Thus, mass velocity is not independent of temperature or pressure.

Correct answer:
D. Neither A nor B
