For a 34.4 mm diameter smooth pipe, calculate the threshold velocity (m/s) and corresponding flow rate (L/s) at which the flow regime in the pipe changes from transitional to turbulent. Use v = 10-6 m2/s for water at 20°C and t = 3.1415. Give your answers to 3 significant figures. Vtrans26.2 = (m/s) Qtrans26.2 = (L/s)
