A hospital patient receives a 600-cc blood transfusion through a needle with a length of 5cm and an inner diameter of 1mm. If the blood bag is suspended 0.75m above the needle, How high can the plastic bag be elevated (and its plastic tube lengthened) before the blood flowing in the needle starts becoming turbulent? (You can neglect the viscosity of the blood flowing in the plastic tube between the bag and the needle. Note also that 1 cc = 10-6 m3 and that blood has a mass density of ρ = 1060kg m-3 and a molecular viscosity of μ = 3.5 x 10-3 kg m-1 s-1).
