Question: The space between two square flat parallel plates is filled with oil. Each side of the plate is 60 cm. The thickness of the oil

The space between two square flat parallel plates is filled with oil. Each side of the plate is 60 cm. The thickness of the oil film is 12.5 mm. The upper plate, which moves at 2.5 m/s requires a force of 98.1 N to maintain this speed. Determine:
a. The dynamic viscosity of the oil in poise, and
b. The kinematic viscosity of the oil in stokes if the specific gravity of the oil is 0.95.\n
