Question:

The viscosity of heavy liquids, such as oils, is frequently measured with a device that consists of a rotating cylinder inside a large cylinder. The annular region between these cylinders is filled with liquid and the torque required to rotate the inner cylinder at constant speed is computed, a linear velocity profile being assumed. For what ratio of cylinder diameters is the assumption of a linear profile accurate within 1% of the true profile?
