Question
Q1 (25 pts): Crude oil with a viscosity of 9.52 x 10-4 lb-s/ft? is contained between two parallel plates.The bottom plate is fixed, and the upper plate moves when a force F is applied tangentially. The distance between the plates is 0.1 inch, and the effective area of the upper plate is 200 in?. O Sketch the problem described above. =) Determine the value of F required to move the plate with a constant speed of 3 ft/s. (C) (5 pts) If you decrease the thickness of the plates in half (0.05 in), does the value of F decrease by more than 50%, decrease by 50%, stay the same, increase by 50%, or increase by a factor of 2 (doubles)?Explain.
