Which phenomenon initiates within a pipe during turbulent flow?

A)Increased momentum via Reynolds stresses
B)Decreased pressure increases laminar behavior
C)Density differentials induce cavitation bubbles
D)Reduced viscosity enhances parallel streamlines

💡 Explanation

Increased momentum occurs because Reynolds stresses, generated by turbulent eddies, transport momentum across fluid layers, thereby amplifying mixing. Therefore, turbulence is propagated via Reynolds stresses, rather than through simplistic viscosity effects or pressure changes.
