Answer:

FALSE

Step-by-step explanation:

REYNOLDS NUMBER :Reynolds number is used to indicate whether the fluid flow past a body or turbulent. it is a dimensionless number

REYNOLDS NUMBER OF A INTERNAL TURBULENT FLOW: For a flow in a pipe experimental observation show that the critical reynolds number is about 2300 for the practical purpose . so the reynolds number can not be so high as 500000
