viscosity of 0.06 cS and a density of 2 kg/m3.Find the force which is required to drag
a thin plate with size 0.15 m of length and 2 m of width between the surfaces at a speed,

oil, what is the required belt-drive power P (watt) (P= power = force x Velocity) if the belt moves at 3.5 m/s
over oil with specific gravity of S=1.7 and oil viscosity of 0.004 m2/s. Belt geometry L=2 m, b = 60 cm, and oil

Sparky is on the university speed ice skating team. When crossing the finish line
Sparky wants to show off and come across the finish line on one skate with a velocity of 35
ft/sec (V). Sparky weighs 150 lbf. Sparky’s weight is supported by a thin liquid film of water
melted by the pressure of the skate blade. If the blade is 13 inches long and 0.125 inches wide
estimate Sparky’s deceleration resulting from viscous shear in a water film of thickness of
0.0000575 inches (h). Neglect all end effects. Evaluate all properties at 32°F. Suggest
creating a simple schematic of the problem using V, h, and the viscous shear stress (not
required).
