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

  • A
    $\frac{\rho v d}{\eta}$
  • B
    $\frac{d \rho v}{\eta}$
  • C
    $\frac{d \rho v}{\eta^2}$
  • D
    $\frac{2 \eta dv}{\rho}$

The rate of flow of water in a capillary tube of length $\ell$ and radius $r$ is $V.$ The rate of flow in another capillary tube of length $2 \ell$ and radius $2 r$ for the same pressure difference would be $....V$

$Assertion :$ 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.
