$A$ liquid of density $10^3 \, kg/m^3$ and coefficient of viscosity $8 \times 10^{-2} \, \text{decapoise}$ is flowing in a tube of radius $2 \, cm$ with speed $2 \, m/s$. The Reynold's number is ..........

$Assertion :$ For Reynolds number $Re > 2000$, the flow of fluid is turbulent.
$Reason :$ Inertial forces are dominant compared to the viscous forces at such high Reynolds numbers.
