Which outcome is triggered when flow transitions above Reynolds limit?

💡 Explanation

Vortex shedding begins above the the critical Reynolds number because inertial forces dominate viscous forces, leading to unstable flow oscillations; therefore vortices detach from an object, rather than consistent laminar flow.
