What is the value of the Reynolds number $(R_e)$ for unsteady flow?

For which of the following Reynolds numbers is a flow considered streamlined (laminar)?

$A$ liquid of density $10^3 \, kg/m^3$ and coefficient of viscosity $8 \times 10^{-2} \, \text{decapoise}$ is flowing in a tube of radius $2 \, cm$ with speed $2 \, m/s$. The Reynold's number is ..........

Water from a pipe is coming at a rate of $100\, L/min$. If the radius of the pipe is $5\, cm$, the Reynolds number for the flow is of the order of: (density of water $= 1000\, kg/m^3$, coefficient of viscosity of water $= 1\, mPa\, s$)

$Assertion :$ 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.
