Consider fluid flow between two infinite horizontal plates when are parallel (the gap between them being 50 mm), The top plate is sliding parallel to the stationary bottom plate at a speed of 3 m/s.
The flow between the plates is solely due to the motion of the top plate. The force per unit area (magnitude) required to maintain the bottom plate stationary is ________ N/m2.
Viscosity of the fluid μ = 0.44 kg/ms and density p = 888 kg/m3.

Correct Option: A
= 7 | = 60 | ||
dy | 0.05 |
Shear strees = τ = μ | ||
