Which frictional outcome results when Reynolds number exceeds limit?

💡 Explanation

Increased turbulent drag happens because the Reynolds number quantifies the ratio of inertial to viscous forces; therefore, exceeding a critical value triggers a transition to turbulent flow, rather than drag decreasing or laminar flow becoming stable.
