Solution

The correct option is A 7.64
$R e = \frac{ρ V D}{μ} = ρ (\frac{4 Q}{π}) \times \frac{D}{μ} = \frac{4 ρ Q}{π μ D}$

$= \frac{4 \times 1.2 \times 10^{3} \times 10 \times 10^{- 3} \times 10^{- 3}}{π \times 0.0048 \times 4 \times 10^{- 3}} \approx 796$

Thus, flow is laminar.

$Δ p = \frac{8 μ L Q}{π R^{4}} = \frac{8 \times 0.0048 \times 1 \times 10 \times 10^{- 3} \times 10^{- 3}}{π \times 2^{4} \times 10^{- 12}} = 7.64 k P a$
