Consider fluid flowing with a free stream velocity of 5 m/s over a flat plate, where the critical Reynolds number is 5 × 105. Determine the distance from the leading edge at which the transition from laminar to turbulent flow occurs for air (at 1 atm), liquid water, methanol, and engine oil, all at 20°C, and mercury at 25°C.
