Answer:

D. is greater for turbulent flow than for laminar flow

Explanation:

what is friction drag?

  • friction drag is a phenomenon experienced when a body moves through a fluid. A practical example can be seen in the mild warmth we experience rubbing the palm's of one's hand together only in this case we are dealing with a solid body and a fluid (e.g air, water). friction drag is directly proportional to the area of the surface in contact with the fluid and increases as velocity increases. We see a practical example of this when the rate at which one rubs the palms together is fast but we use the word turbulent when we are dealing with fluids. Turbulent flow creates more friction drag than laminar flow( Flow between a smooth body and fluid) due to its greater interaction with the surface of the body
  • it is important to know that friction is also called viscous drag or skin drag
  • I recommend Richardson and coulson vol 2 textbook, page 149, Chemical enginering fluid mechanics textbook by Ron dardy, page 341 for clearer explanation

Myopia

Explanation:

myopia is a common vision condition in which you can see objects near to you clearly, but objects farther away are blurry. It occurs when the shape of your eye causes light rays to refract incorrectly, focusing images in front of your retina instead of on your retina. It can be corrected corrected with eyeglasses, contact lenses or refractive surgery.
