What will be the nature of flow of water from a circular tap, when its flow rate increased from to The radius of the tap and viscosity of water are and , respectively. (Density of water : )
Options
- AUnsteady to steady flow
- BRemains steady flow
- CRemains turbulent flow
- DSteady flow to unsteady flow
Correct answer
D. Steady flow to unsteady flow
Step-by-step solution
The nature of flow is determined by Reynolds
Number.
