(16 pts) Consider the steady state flow of a Newtonian fluid through a porous vertical
cylindrical container shown below. The cylindrical container has a closed bottom. Both the
sides and the bottom of the container are made of a porous material through which the fluid
may flow. The level of liquid is maintained at a constant height, h, above the top of the
container.
