What is turbulent flow? Give an example of turbulent flow.

Water flows from a tap of diameter $1.5 \ cm$ with a flow rate of $7.5 \times 10^{-5} \ m^3 \ s^{-1}$. The coefficient of viscosity of water is $10^{-3} \ Pa \cdot s$. The flow is:

$(a)$ What is the largest average velocity of blood flow in an artery of radius $2 \times 10^{-3} \; m$ if the flow must remain laminar?
$(b)$ What is the corresponding flow rate? (Take viscosity of blood to be $2.084 \times 10^{-3} \; Pa \; s$).

$A$ highly viscous liquid of viscosity coefficient $\eta$ flows through a fixed horizontal cylindrical tube (fixed from the outer surface) of internal radius $r$,thickness $t$ $(t \ll r)$,and length $l$. The volume of liquid flowing per second is $Q$ and the pressure difference across the tube is $P$. If the modulus of rigidity of the material of the tube is $\beta$,the shear strain in the tube will be:
