Question 21

XE-BNAT2 marksNeeds review
Two infinite parallel horizontal plates are separated by a small gap (

mm) as shown in figure. The bottom plate is fixed and the gap between the plates is filled with oil having density of 890 kg/m³ and kinematic viscosity of 0.0003 m²/s. A shear flow is induced by moving the upper plate with a velocity of 5 m/s. Assume, linear velocity profile between the plates and the oil to be a Newtonian fluid. The shear stress (N/m²) at the upper plate is __________
