Question: 1 . 1 PIPE FLOW: Water ( 6 0 ^ ( @ ) F ) flows through a 2 - in . - diameter pipe

1.1 PIPE FLOW: Water (60^(@)F) flows through a 2-in.-diameter pipe with a velocity of 15ft//s as shown in
the figure below. The relative roughness of the pipe is 0.004. Assume a value of a for laminar or
turbulent flow and check if it is consistent by calculating Reynold's number. Use Moody's Diagram
to solve the problem.
What is the value of Reynold's number using the formula Re=(rho VD)/(mu) using the density of water at
given temperature?
