Question:

Water at 20°C is flowing along a 5-m-bng flat plate with a velocity of 50 m/s. What will be the boundary layer thickness at a position 5 m from the leading edge? Is the boundary layer flow at this location laminar, or turbulent? If each of the plate surfaces measures 500 m2, determine the total drag force if both sides are exposed to the flow.
