1450 kg/m³, Given the viscosity of honey µhoney = 10 Pa-s, density of honey Phoney and assuming the flow splits evenly at the intersections, what is the total pressure drop required to maintain a flow rate Q = 0.5 mL/min as predicted by Poiseuille's law? Does the Reynolds number of the flow support the use of Poiseuille's law?
