$A$ fluid of density $\rho$ and viscosity $\eta$ is flowing through a pipe of diameter $d$, with a velocity $v$. The Reynolds number is:

What is the value of Reynolds number for turbulent flow?

We have two narrow capillary tubes $T_1$ and $T_2$. Their lengths are $l_1$ and $l_2$ and radii of cross-section are $r_1$ and $r_2$ respectively. The rate of flow of water under a pressure difference $P$ through tube $T_1$ is $8 \ cm^3/sec$. If $l_1 = 2l_2$ and $r_1 = r_2$,what will be the rate of flow when the two tubes are connected in series and the pressure difference across the combination is the same as before $(= P)$?

$Assertion :$ For Reynolds number $Re > 2000$, the flow of fluid is turbulent.
$Reason :$ Inertial forces are dominant compared to the viscous forces at such high Reynolds numbers.

The volume of a liquid is proportional to......,given its density $\rho$,viscosity $\eta$ and $t$ the time of flow through a capillary tube of length $L$ and radius $R$,with a pressure difference $p$ across its ends.
