When a liquid flows through a tube, the Reynold's number is 900 , the flow of a liquid is
  1. turbulent.
  2. changes from turbulent flow to a streamline flow.
  3. streamline.
  4. changes from a streamline flow to a turbulent flow.

Solution

Reynold number of liquid is 900 . The nature of liquid flow is streamlined. For fully developed laminar flow $\mathrm{Re}<2300$, transition region exists between $2300<\operatorname{Re}<2900$ and for turbulent flow $2900<\operatorname{Re}$.
