Given:

Diameter= 2cm
Velocity=5cm/sec

Since,

Density of water= 1g/cc
Viscosity of water= .01poise.

Reynolds number= Density * diameterr * Velocity/ dynamic viscosity.
So, Re = 1*2*5/.01.
= 10/10-^2,
= 10*10^2,
= 1000.

Nre = density.v.d/viscosity.
= 1 * .02*.05/10^(4),
= 1000.

Take unit in cm and gram.

The viscosity of water is 0.01 poise = 0.001 kg/(m^2s).
So, the answer is 1000.

@Satya.

Ans is 100, the viscosity of water is .001.

Nre = density.v.d/kinamatic viscosity.
= 1000 * .02*.05/10^(-4),
= 1000.
