A viscous fluid flows in a cylindrical pipe with a diameter of 10 cm. The velocity of the fluid that is measured 0.012 m away from the pipe wall is 0.8 m/s. If the flow is laminar, determine the centerline velocity and the flow rate.
Consider incompressible, frictionless flow of a fluid in a horizontal piping. The pressure and velocity of a fluid is measured to be 150 kPa and 1.25 m/s at a specified point. The density of the fluid is 700 kg/m3. If the pressure is 140 kPa at another point, the velocity of the fluid at that point is (a) 1.26 m/s (b) 1.34 m/s (c) 3.75 m/s (d ) 5.49 m/s (e) 7.30 m/s
