 (5 pts) Consider coolant flowing crosswise over a pipe pumping hightemperature

(5 pts) Consider coolant flowing crosswise over a pipe pumping hightemperature product from reactor. The radius of the cylinder is R and the coolant speed far upstream from the pipe is U. Assuming the pipe is long compared to its diameter, that flow is incompressible, and viscous effects are negligible, the velocity field of the flow is given in cylindrical coordinates as: uru=U(1r2R2)cos=U(1+r2R2)sin Show that this flow field satisfies the continuity equation
