The Reynolds number for flow over a fixed horizontal flat plate is constant throughout its length. a) True b) False

Answer: False

Explanation: Reynolds number is the number for determining he flow pattern of the behavior of fluids. It judges the flow of the fluid ans states whether it is of turbulent or laminar natured. This number has the property of kinematics as well as statics. It can also be defined as the ratio between the inertial force to viscous force. It's length changes along with change length of the horizontal plate. Thus, the statement given is false.
