Consider steady fully developed flow of a liquid through two large horizontal flat parallel plates separated by a distance of 2 mm. One of the plate is fixed and the other plate moves at a speed of 0.5 m/s. What is the magnitude of the pressure gradient (in Pa/m) in the direction of the flow required to ensure that the net flow through the plates is zero? Dynamic viscosity of the liquid is 5x10-4 Ns/m2 (Round off to the nearest integer)
Answer: 374 to 376
