- 1When the velocity of flow was low, the dye-filament in the glass tube was randomly distributed
- 2With an increase in the velocity of flow, the dye-filament remained in the form of a straight line
- 3The straight line of dye-filament parallel to the glass tube indicated the case of laminar flow✓
- 4With a further increase in the velocity of flow, the dye-filament fails to produce shear stresses
Correct answer
The straight line of dye-filament parallel to the glass tube indicated the case of laminar flow
