The correct Answer is:
To solve the problem, we will use the formula for viscous force derived from Newton's law of viscosity. The formula is: \[ F = \eta \cdot A \cdot \frac{dv}{dx} \] Where: - \( F \) is the force required to move the plate, - \( \eta \) is the coefficient of viscosity, - \( A \) is the area of the plate, - \( \frac{dv}{dx} \) is the velocity gradient (change in velocity per unit thickness). ### Step-by-Step Solution: 1. **Identify the given values:** - Coefficient of viscosity, \( \eta = 1.0 \, \text{kg/(m·s)} \) - Area of the plate, \( A = 100 \, \text{cm}^2 = 100 \times 10^{-4} \, \text{m}^2 = 0.01 \, \text{m}^2 \) - Velocity, \( v = 7 \, \text{cm/s} = 7 \times 10^{-2} \, \text{m/s} \) - Thickness of the glycerine layer, \( dx = 1 \, \text{mm} = 1 \times 10^{-3} \, \text{m} \) 2. **Calculate the velocity gradient \( \frac{dv}{dx} \):** \[ \frac{dv}{dx} = \frac{v}{dx} = \frac{7 \times 10^{-2} \, \text{m/s}}{1 \times 10^{-3} \, \text{m}} = 70 \, \text{s}^{-1} \] 3. **Substitute the values into the formula:** \[ F = \eta \cdot A \cdot \frac{dv}{dx} \] \[ F = 1.0 \, \text{kg/(m·s)} \cdot 0.01 \, \text{m}^2 \cdot 70 \, \text{s}^{-1} \] 4. **Calculate the force:** \[ F = 1.0 \cdot 0.01 \cdot 70 = 0.7 \, \text{N} \] ### Final Answer: The force required to move the plate with a velocity of 7 cm/s is **0.7 N**.
