Viscous drag force depends on ...........

How many times is the shearing stress of a fluid compared to the shearing stress of a solid when subjected to the same deformation?

The property of a liquid by which it opposes the flow of itself is called ..........

Write one practical use of viscosity.

$A$ flat plate of area $0.1 \,m^2$ is placed on a flat surface and is separated from it by a film of oil $10^{-5} \,m$ thick whose coefficient of viscosity is $1.5 \,N \cdot s \cdot m^{-2}$. The force required to cause the plate to slide on the surface at a constant speed of $1 \,mm \cdot s^{-1}$ is ............ $N$.

Water is flowing on a horizontal fixed surface,such that its flow velocity varies with $y$ (vertical direction) as $v = k \left( \frac{2y^2}{a^2} - \frac{y^3}{a^3} \right)$. If the coefficient of viscosity for water is $\eta$,what will be the shear stress between the layers of water at $y = a$?
