Identify the incorrect statement regarding Reynolds number $(R_e)$:

  • A
    for $R_e < 1000$,flow is laminar
  • B
    for $1000 < R_e < 2000$,flow is steady
  • C
    for $R_e > 2000$,flow is turbulent
  • D
    $R_e$ is a dimensionless number

$A$ capillary tube of length $l$ and radius $r$ is connected to the bottom of a container. When the pressure difference across it is $P$,the volume of water flowing out per second is $V$. If another capillary tube of the same length but half the radius is connected in series with the first one,what will be the new volume of liquid flowing out per second? (The total pressure difference across the system is $P$.)

If $R_e > 2000$,then which type of flow exists? Explain.

Three capillaries of length $L, L/2$ and $L/3$ are connected in series. Their radii are $r, r/2$ and $r/3$ respectively. If stream-line flow is to be maintained and the pressure difference across the first capillary is $P$,then:

$A$ dimensionally consistent relation for the volume $V$ of a liquid of coefficient of viscosity $\eta$ flowing per second through a tube of radius $r$ and length $l$ and having a pressure difference $p$ across its end,is
