Question:

The applied pressure difference, \(\Delta p\), and corresponding volume flow rate, \(Q\), for laminar flow in a tube can be compared to the applied DC voltage \(V\) across, and current \(I\) through, an electrical resistor, respectively. Investigate whether or not this analogy is valid for turbulent flow by plotting the "resistance" \(\Delta p / Q\) as a function of \(Q\) for turbulent flow of kerosene (at \(40^{\circ} \mathrm{C}\) ) in a tube \(250 \mathrm{~mm}\) long with inside diameter \(7.5 \mathrm{~mm}\).
