**Determining Flow Regimes for Gasoline in a Pipe****Problem:**Evaluate whether the flow of gasoline at 20°C through an 8-cm-diameter pipe with a velocity of 4 mm/sec is laminar, transitional, or turbulent.**Flow Categories:**- **a.** Turbulent- **b.** Between Laminar and Transitional- **c.** Laminar- **d.** Cannot determine- **e.** TransitionalTo determine the flow regime (laminar, transitional, or turbulent), it is essential to calculate the Reynolds number \(Re\). The flow type can generally be identified using the following Reynolds number ranges:- Laminar Flow: \(Re < 2000\)- Transitional Flow: \(2000 \leq Re \leq 4000\)- Turbulent Flow: \(Re > 4000\)The Reynolds number is calculated using the formula:\[ Re = \frac{\rho v D}{\mu} \]where:- \(\rho\) is the density of the fluid (kg/m³)- \(v\) is the velocity of the fluid (m/s)- \(D\) is the diameter of the pipe (m)- \(\mu\) is the dynamic viscosity of the fluid (Pa·s or N·s/m²)Given:- Velocity, \( v = 4 \text{ mm/sec} = 0.004 \text{ m/sec} \)- Diameter, \( D = 8 \text{ cm} = 0.08 \text{ m} \)Information on the specific density (\(\rho\)) and dynamic viscosity (\(\mu\)) of gasoline at 20°C would be required to complete the calculations. Without these values, the flow regime cannot be precisely determined.Feel free to refer to fluid mechanics resources to find the necessary properties of gasoline at 20°C to proceed with the Reynolds number calculation.

What is the Reynolds # of the flow.? Water @ 15C is transported from a large open tank to the bottom of another open tank above. The surfaces of the two tanks are kept at 160ft apart vertically. The pipes used have an ID of 3.5 inches, and a total length of the pipe used is 150ft. In the system, there are two fully open gate valves, 6 90° elbows, and 2 standard tees. The pump used has a mechanical efficiency of 60%, and the volumetric flow rate of water is at 35 (ft^3)/s. Assume frictional losses frm sudden contraction and expansion are negligible.
10. Water at a temperature of 800C (coefficient of viscosity is 0.357 centipoise) is flowing at a speed of 200 cm/s through a pipe of radius 2 mm. What is the nature of flow? What is the maximum velocity for it to remain laminar? What is the minimum velocity that will make the flow turbulent?
For fully developed laminar pipe flow, if the diameter of the pipe is decreased by a factor of 3 whereas the length of pipe and flow rate is kept fixed the head loss will …………. Please fill the blank with correct answer.

The static head at a certain station on a 101.6 mm schedule 40, clean iron cold pipe is 70.69 m The static head is to be determined for a station 162.4 m farther along the pipe in the direction of flow,and where the pipe is 10.14 m higher than station 1. Between the stations are two elbows. Flow rateis 1452 l/min.
