PhysicsMechanical Properties of FluidsJEE Main 2022

The velocity of upper layer of water in a river is 36 . Shearing stress between horizontal layers of water is . Depth of the river is m. (Co-efficient of viscosity of water is Pa.s)

Answer: 100

Solution

The stress is F/A = . Here 36 km/h = 10 m/s, so (10/h), giving h = 100 m.
