← ScienceWhich effect increases when a Newtonian fluid’s flow violates Reynolds equation assumptions?
A)Reduced pump cavitation
B)Increased laminar flow stability
C)Elevated turbulent eddy dissipation
D)Augmented drag coefficient magnitude✓
💡 Explanation
Increased drag occurs because violating the Reynolds equation means increased turbulence, which manifests as larger form drag due to increased energy dissipation; therefore drag increases, rather than stabilizing flow; cavitation and eddy dissipation remain lower.
