Consider an incompressible flow of a constant property fluid over a smooth, thin and wide flat plate. The free stream flows parallel to the surface of the plate along its length and its velocity is constant. Value of the Reynolds number at a distance of 2.0 m from the leading edge of the plate is 8000. The flow within the boundary layer at a distance of 1.0 m from the leading edge of the plate is
A
laminar
B
turbulent
C
inviscid
D
transitioning from laminar to turbulent

Correct : a
