The transition Reynolds number for flow over a flat plate is $5\ast 10^5$. What is the distance from the leading edge at which transition will occur for flow of water with a uniform velocity of $1 \: \text{m/s}?\;($For water, the kinematic viscosity $v=0.86 \ast 10^{-6} \:\text{m}^2\text{/s})$

  1. $0.43\;\text{m}$
  2. $1\;\text{m}$
  3. $43\;\text{m}$
  4. $103\;\text{m}$
