Question: 2 . Oil ( constant viscosity ( mu ) and density ( rho ) ) is confined in a

2. Oil (constant viscosity \(\mu \) and density \(\rho \)) is confined in a cylinder with diameter \( D \) by a piston with clearance of \( h \). The length of the piston is given by \( L \), and a weight \( W \) is applied to the piston. You may assume that \( h \ll D \).
Estimate the leakage rate of oil \( Q \) past the piston, in terms of the known parameters.
2 . Oil ( constant viscosity \ ( \ mu \ ) and
