← ScienceWhich outcome results when fluid viscosity decreases substantially within a high-speed manufacturing pipeline?
A)Onset of turbulent flow increases✓
B)Lower Reynolds number predominates
C)Damped oscillations propagate further
D)Cavitation risk within pumps diminishes
💡 Explanation
Decreased viscosity implies that inertial forces dominate because the Reynolds number increases; therefore turbulent flow is more prevalent rather than laminar, because viscosity provides less damping against instabilities.
