(choose chapter or problem)

Problem 81POn a hot day (T = 30°C), a truck moves along the highway at 29.1 m/s. The flat side of the truck is treated as a simple, smooth flat-plate boundary layer, to first approximation. Estimate the x-location along the plate where the boundary layer begins to transition to turbulence. How far downstream from the beginning, of the plate do you expect the  boundary layer to become fully turbulent? Give both answers to one significant digit?
