Two flat plates, separated by a space of 4 mm, are moving relative to each other at a velocity of 5 m/sec. The space between them is occupied by a fluid of unknown viscosity. The motion of the plates is resisted by a shear stress of 10 Pa due to the viscosity of the fluid. Assuming that the velocity gradient of the fluid is constant, determine the coefficient of viscosity of the fluid.

0.008

Explanation:

From the question, the parameters given are:

Velocity V = 5 m/s

Pressure = 10 pa

But pressure = F/A

10 = F/A

F = 10A

Substitute all the parameters into the formula below

Coefficient of viscosity (η) = F × r /[AV]

Where

F = tangential force,

r = distance between layers,

A = Area, and

V = velocity

(η) = 10A × 0.004 /[A × 5]

The A will cancel out

(η) = 10 × 0.004 /[5]

(η) = 0.04 /5

(η) = 0.008

Therefore, the coefficient of viscosity of the fluid is 0.008
