Question 1

What characterizes a laminar boundary layer?

  • Chaotic flow
  • Smooth and orderly flow
  • High turbulence

πŸ’‘ Hint: Think about how fluid flows smoothly in layers.

Question 2

True or False: Displacement thickness indicates how much fluid is displaced due to the boundary layer.

  • True
  • False

πŸ’‘ Hint: Consider the impact of the boundary layer on flow rate.
