Question: Question Two ( 1 1 Marks ) 2 . 1 An unknown fluid flows through a smooth pipe of radius ( R )

Question Two (11 Marks)
2.1 An unknown fluid flows through a smooth pipe of radius \( R \) such that the Reynolds number is 10000, based on the centre-line velocity. Assuming a power law velocity profile, calculate:
a. the average velocity of the flow, \( V \), as a percentage of the centre-line velocity, \( U \);
b. at which position you would place a Pitot tube in order to measure the average velocity in the pipe? Give your answer as a percentage of the pipe radius, \( R \).
