A rectangular metal plate has dimensions of `10cmxx20cm`. A thin film of oil separates the plate from a fixed horizontal surface. The separation between the rectangular plate and the horizontal surface is `0.2mm`. An ideal string is attached to the plate and passes over an ideal pulley to a mass `m`. When `m=125gm`, the metal plate moves at constant speed of `5(cm)/(s)`, across the horizontal surface. Then the coefficient of viscosity of oil in `("dyne"-s)/(cm^2)` is (Use `g=1000(cm)/(s^2)`)
