A metal plate 100cm^2 in area rests horizontally ona layer of oil 2 mm thick.A force of 0.1 N applied to the plate horizontally keeps it moving with a uniform speed of 2cm/s . Find the viscosity of oil. |
|
Answer» Solution :Since the metal plate is moving uniformly the applied FORCE just overcomes the drag From F = `eta A (DV)/(dy),eta = (F)/(A(dv)/(dy))` = `(0.1)/(100 xx 10^-4) xx (2 xx 10^-2)/(2 xx 10^-3) = 1Ns/m^2` |
