Answer

$\tau=4.48\times10^{-2}{\frac{\mathrm{N}}{\mathrm{m}^{2}}}$ [in the direction of the flow ]

Work Step by Step

$\quad\tau=\mu{\frac{d u}{d y}}$ ${\frac{d u}{d y}}=U\left({\frac{2}{h}}-{\frac{y^{2}}{h^{2}}}\right)$ $\left({\frac{d u}{d y}}\right)_{y=0}={\frac{2D}{h}}$ $\tau=\mu\left({\frac{2U}{h}}\right)=(1.12\times10^{-3})(2){\frac{(2)}{(0.1)}}=4.48\times10^{-2}{\frac{\mathrm{N}}{\mathrm{m}^{2}}}$ [in the direction of the flow ]
