The space between two large horizontal metal plates 6cm apart is filled with a liquid of viscosity 0.8Ns/m2 . A thin planck of surface area 1m2 is moved parallel to the length of the plates such that the planck is at a distance of 2cm from one plate and 4cm from the other.The force F required to drag it with a constant speed of is 1ms−1 is
60N
F=ηA(dvdx)1+η(dvdx)2=(0.8)(1)(1024)+(0.8)(1)(1022)=0.8×102[14+12]=0.8×102(34)=60N
