Problem 3. Air at 20°C and 1 atm (p= 1.2 kg/m³ and u= 1.8×105 kg/(m-s)) flows at 3 m/s past a sharp flat plate 2 m wide and 1 m long. Determine: a) the boundary layer thickness and the wall shear stress at the end of the plate b) the air velocity at a point 4.5 mm normal to the end of the plate c) the total friction drag on both sides of the plate

Problem 3. Air at 20°C and 1 atm (p= 1.2 kg/m³ and µ= 1.8×10¹5 kg/(m-s)) flows at 3 m/s past a sharp flat
plate 2 m wide and 1 m long. Determine:
a) the boundary layer thickness and the wall shear stress at the end of the plate
b) the air velocity at a point 4.5 mm normal to the end of the plate
c) the total friction drag on both sides of the plate
