A circular container partially filled with water is rotated about its axis at an angular velocity w. At time t, from the start of rotation, the velocity v0(initial) at some distance r from the axis of rotation has been found to be a function of t,w, and the properties of the fluid. Write this function in dimensionless form. If, in another experiment, honey (SG=1.4) is placed in the same cylinder at the same angular velocity, determine if honey will reach steady state faster than in water.
