Question
**Problem Statement:**

Compute the Reynolds number of water \( \rho_w = 1000 \, \text{kg/m}^3 \), \( \mu_w = 1 \times 10^{-3} \, \text{kg/(m} \cdot \text{s)} \) flow inside a channel of diameter \( D = 1 \, \text{m} \) at \( 1.644 \, \text{m/s} \).

**Requirements:**

To calculate the Reynolds number (Re) for this scenario, use the following formula:

\[ \text{Re} = \frac{\rho V D}{\mu} \]

Where:
- \( \rho \) is the density of the fluid (\( \text{kg/m}^3 \))
- \( V \) is the velocity of the fluid (\( \text{m/s} \))
- \( D \) is the diameter of the pipe or channel (\( \text{m} \))
- \( \mu \) is the dynamic viscosity of the fluid (\( \text{kg/(m} \cdot \text{s)} \))
