Answer:

(c) If the Reynolds number for the plate based on the length L is greater than this value, then the boundary layer is turbulent over the entire plate.

Explanation:

The applicability of the Reynolds number differs depending on the specifications of the fluid flow such as the variation of density (compressibility), a variation of viscosity (Non-Newtonian), being internal- or external flow, etc. The critical Reynolds number is the expression of the value to specify transition among regimes which diversifies regarding type of flow and geometry as well. Whilst the critical Reynolds number for turbulent flow in a pipe is 2000, the critical Reynolds number for turbulent flow over a flat plate, when the flow velocity is the free-stream velocity, is in a range from 10 raised to power 5 to 10 raised to power 6, .4

Explanation:

The teacher is most likely putting the while line paper in jeopardy because of the detail process involved in taking care of the paper prior to the submission of the home work.

The fact that a mistake must not be visible due to the instruction of every erasures being thorough and clean. this can cause jeopardy to the paper.

Answer:

See explaination and attachment.

Explanation:

Iteration method is a repetitive method applied until the desired result is achieved.

Let the given equation be f(x) = 0 and the value of x to be determined. By using the Iteration method you can find the roots of the equation. To find the root of the equation first we have to write equation like below

x = pi(x)

Let x=x0 be an initial approximation of the required root α then the first approximation x1 is given by x1 = pi(x0).

Similarly for second, thrid and so on. approximation

x2 = pi(x1)

x3 = pi(x2)

x4 = pi(x3)

xn = pi(xn-1).

please go to attachment for the step by step solution.
