Question:

If the upstream velocity of the flow in Problem 9.14 is \(U=\) \(1.5 \mathrm{~m} / \mathrm{s}\), determine the kinematic viscosity of the fluid.

Problem 9.14

A viscous fluid flows past a flat plate such that the boundary layer thickness at a distance \(1.3 \mathrm{~m}\) from the leading edge is \(12 \mathrm{~mm}\). Determine the boundary layer thickness at distances of \(0.20,2.0\), and \(20 \mathrm{~m}\) from the leading edge. Assume laminar flow.
