A large wooden plate of area `10m^2` floating on the surface of river is made to move horizontally wilth a speed of `2ms^-1` by applying a tangential force. If the river is 1m deep and the water contact with the bed is stationary, find the tangential force needed to keep the plate moving. Coefficient of viscosity of water at the temperature of the river `=10^-2 poise.`A. velocity gradient is `2s^(-1)`B. velocity gradient is `1s^(-1)`C. force required to keep the plate moving with constant speed is 0.02ND. force required to keep the plate moving with constant speed is 0.01N

Answer» Correct Answer - A::C
Velocity gradient `=(Delta v)/(Deltah)=(2m//s)/(1m)=2s^(-1)`
`F=eta A(Delta v)/(Deltah)=(10^(-3))(10)(2)`
`=0.02N`.
