Reynold's number R which determines the condition for streamline flow of a liquid through a tube depends upon.

Open in App
Solution

Reynold's number(Re)=InertiaForceviscousforce=ρvdμ.
Here ρ=Density and v=average velocity and d=characteristic length
Hence from the above equation we can say that reynold's number depends upon the inertia force
as well as viscous force of the fluid.
