To find the average velocity of water in a tube of radius 2.5 mm such that the flow is just turbulent, we can use the Reynolds number formula. The Reynolds number (Re) is given by the equation: \[ Re = \frac{\rho V D}{\eta} \] Where: - \( \rho \) = density of the fluid (for water, approximately \( 1000 \, \text{kg/m}^3 \)) ...

When a liquid flows in a tube, there is relative motion between adjacent layers of the liquid. This force is called the viscous force which tends to oppose the relative motion between the layers of the liquid. Newton was the first person to study the factors that govern the viscous force in a liquid. According to Newton’s law of viscous flow, the magnitude of the viscous force on a certain layer of a liquid is given by F = - eta A (dv)/(dx) where A is the area of the layer (dv)/(dx) is the velocity gradient at the layer and eta is the coefficient of viscosity of the liquid.
