1.70 A large plate moves with speed vg over a stationary plate on a layer of oil (see Fig. 1 5). If the velocity profile is
that 01 a parabola, with the oil at the plates having the same velocity as the plates, what is the shear stress on
the moving plate from the oil? If a linear profile is assumed, what is the shear stres on the upper plate?

| For a parabolicprofile, v2 = ay. When y = d, u = ua. Hence, 03 = M, a = vä/d. Therefore,

Fory = d, r = u[(u)(l/\/t7)(})(d m)] = uu/(2d). For a linearprolile,dv/dy = ".,/d, t = (%/d).

1.71 A square block weighing 1.1 kN and 250 mm on an edge slides down an incline on a mm of oil 6.0 um thick (see
Fig. 1-6). Assuming a linear velocity profile in the oil, what is the terminal speed of the block? The viscosity of
the oil is 7 mPa - s.

At the tenninal condition, equilibrium occurs. Hence. 1100 sin 20° = 72.9u u, = 5.16 m/s.
