Question 25

XE-BNAT2 marksNeeds review
Consider steady laminar flow of an incompressible Newtonian fluid between two infinite parallel plates, separated by a distance of 1 m, as shown in the figure. The bottom plate is stationary but the top one is moving in positive

-direction with a velocity of 3 m/s. The fluid pressure gradient in the flow direction is:

. If the viscosity of the fluid is 1 kg m⁻¹ s⁻¹ then the distance of the point of maximum velocity (in meters, rounded off to the second decimal place) from the bottom plate would be __________
