Re=VD/v
As per question maximum velocity of laminar flow means -Re=2000
Then 2000=V*8cm/0.4cm2/sec
V=2000*0.4/8=100cm/sec=1m/sec
Opt-B is right

Re = v*d/kinematic viscosity
Given mention it is laminar flow so R = 2000
2000=v*8/0•4
V=100cm/sec
V=1m/sec

D is correct i think, Vmax=2U
am I right please correct me🤔
