  1. For a fully developed laminar flow of water (dynamic viscosity 0.001 Pa-s) through a pipe radius 5 cm, the axial pressure gradient is –10 Pa/m. The magnitude of axial velocity (in m/s) at a radial location of 0.2 cm is ________.
    1. 6.24
    2. 6.29
    3. 6.26
    4. 6.34
Correct Option: A

u =
-1 δP
(R² - r²)
4μδx

=
-1
× (-10)((0.05)² - (0.002)²)
4μδx

u = 6.24 m/s
