Which outcome determines the drag coefficient regime when a sphere moves through a Newtonian fluid?

💡 Explanation

Boundary layer separation changes the drag regime because the Reynolds number affects when the adhesive viscous forces are overcome by inertial detachment; therefore boundary separation happens rather than laminar flow adhesion or cavitation.
