Two glass plates each of length 16 cm and breadth 8 cm move parallel to each other in water with a relative velocity of 6 cm `s^(-1)`. If the viscous force is `175 xx 10^(-5)`N, what is their distance of separation ? (Given `eta_("water")` = 0.001 PI)

Explanation

To solve the problem, we will use the formula for viscous force between two parallel plates:

\[ F = \eta \cdot A \cdot \frac{dv}{dx} \]

Where:
- \( F \) is the viscous force,
