In Tinyland, houses are less than a foot high! The rainfall is laminar! The drainpipe, as shown in the figure below, is only 2 mm in diameter. The length L = 22 cm. For water, take ρ = 998 kg/m3 and μ = 0.001 kg/m⋅s. Take π = 22/7. The kinetic energy correction factor α is 2.0. The gutter is designed for a sudden rainstorm of up to 5 mm per hour. For this condition, what is the maximum roof area that can be drained successfully? (in m^2) Determine the Reynolds number of the gutter.
