2) A bacterium can swim as fast as hundreds of body lengths per second. What is the minimum swimming speed for a bacterium of 1 µm in length in order to experience turbulent flow, and would it ever do so? Assume the viscosity of water is 10-3 kg m-1 S-1, and that the density of water is 1 kg m-3. Show all work, thanks!

Calculate the Reynolds number, Re- (2rpv)/ n, for the following situations and decide whether the flow of fluid around them is laminar or turbulent. Then calculate the frag force using the appropriate formula. For the radius, use r 2(Area/perimeter) which, for a circle, gives the radius. Densities and viscosities are in the table on page 2. Also, to keep things uniform, we will use the boundaries for laminar and turbulent flow from Engineer's Toolbox, also on pg. 2 [1] A...

The Reynolds Number, Re, is of great importance in Chemical Engineering. This dimensionless quantity is used to describe fluid flow patterns. If Re is over 2,100 the flow regime is considered turbulent and below 2,100 the flow regime is laminar. Re is defined as the ratio of inertial forces to viscous forces. And is represented mathematically as: ?? = ??? ? , where D is the pipe diameter (length), u is the fluid velocity (length/time), ? is the fluid density...

5.16. Water is flowing in a 3-cm-diameter pipe at an average velocity of Uav 2 m/s. Assuming water density of ρ-1000 kg/m 3 and viscosity μ-10-3 N s'm2, calculate the velocity at the center of the pipe, the shear τ at the wall, and the Reynolds number. Assuming laminar flow, calculate friction coefficient C and pressure drop dp/dx.
