Question: 1 A thin plate is moving in a direction parallel to its length in still air at a velocity of 4 . 0 m s

1 A thin plate is moving in a direction parallel to its length in still air at a velocity of 4.0ms. The length of the plate is 0.5 m and width is 0.6 m . Taking vair=1.510-5m2s and air=1.25kgm3, calculate (a) the boundary layer thickness at the end of the plate, (b) shear stress at 20 cm from the leading edge, and (c) drag force on one side of the plate. . Ans. (:=6.847(mm),0=0.02875(Pa),FD=0.0109(N)
