Question

I got an answer of x = 89.4mm

And a reynolds number of  1.09 * 10^5

 

Just want to confirm my math

44. Air at 20°C and 1 atm flows past a smooth flat plate as in Fig. P4-4. A pitot stagna-
tion tube, placed 2 mm from the wall, develops a water manometer head h
= 21 mm.
Use this information with the Blasius solution, Table 4-1, to estimate the position x of
the pitot tube. Check to see if the flow is laminar.
