Please answer part A,B and C exactly as asked.?????
Various industrial processes require that a flat sheet be coated with a uniform liquid film. Dip coating is a procedure in which an immersed substrate is withdrawn through a liquid-gas interface. In the process in Figure 1, in which a substrate is pulled upward at a constant velocity V, the coating achieves a uniform thickness H at a certain height above the liquid. It is desired to predict H from V and the liquid properties , and ).

a) Representative values are H=0.02 to 0.2cm,V=0.4 to 3cms,=0.3 to 2Pa*s,=900kgm3, and =30mNm. By examining the ranges of dimensionless groups, show that viscosity, gravity, and surface tension are all important, but inertia is not. (Use dimensionless group listed on Table 1.6(Deen))

b) A theoretical result that is applicable here is
H(g)12=0.944(V)23(1-H2gV)23
Show that this may be rewritten as a relationship between Bo and Ca.
Here is the definition of Bo and Ca.
Bo=gL2-=GravitaionalSurfaceTension
Ca=U-=ViscousSurfaceTension
c) If one group is chosen now as N=(BoCa)12=[H2gvV]12 and Ca is the second group, show that
N(1-N2)23=0.944Ca16
Use this to derive explicit expressions for N for Ca0 and Ca. How does H vary with V in these limits?
