Question: where U = 3 m / s is the free - stream velocity outside the boundary layer ( y > ) and the boundary layer

where U=3 m/s is the free-stream velocity outside the boundary layer (y>) and the boundary layer thickness (x) varies in the streamwise x-direction (depends on x). The boundary layer thickness is measured at section a-b such that ab=2 mm and cd=3 mm at section c-d. The fluid is water with density =1000 kg/m3. The plate width perpendicular to the paper is w=0.2 m. Assume two-dimensional, steady state, and incompressible flow. The height of the control volume (a-b and c-d) is not specified and is at your discretion, as along as b and c are at the same height outside of the boundary layer.
