Question

A thin plate moves between two parallel, horizontal, stationary flat surfaces at a constant velocity of 5 m/s5 \mathrm{~m} / \mathrm{s}. The two stationary surfaces are spaced 4 cm4 \mathrm{~cm} apart, and the medium between them is filled with oil whose viscosity is 0.9 Ns/m20.9 \mathrm{~N} \cdot \mathrm{s} / \mathrm{m}^2. The part of the plate immersed in oil at any given time is 22-m\mathrm{m} long and 0.50.5-m\mathrm{m} wide. If the plate moves through the mid-plane between the surfaces, find the force required to maintain this motion. What would your response be if the plate was 1 cm1 \mathrm{~cm} from the bottom surface (h2)\left(h_2\right) and 3 cm3 \mathrm{~cm} from the top surface (h1)\left(h_1\right) ?

We need to sketch this Free Body Diagram because we have visual representation of the total force will be actually smaller than in the second case.
