What is the velocity, vx, in the x-direction? To clarify, these velocities below are actually equal to each other, but which one should you use for this problem?

Two horizontal plates with infinite length and width are separated by a distance h in the z direction. the bottom plate is moving at a velocity u. the incompressible fluid trapped between the plates is moving in the positive x-direction with the bottom plate. align gravity with positive z. assume that the flow is fully-developed and laminar. if the systems operates at steady state and the pressure gradient in x-direction can be ignored, do the following: 1. sketch your system 2. identify the coordinate system to be used. 3. show your coordinates and origin point on the sketch. list all your assumptions. 5. apply the continuity equation to your system. nts of navier stokes equations of choice to your system 7. solve the resulting differential equation to obtain the velocity profile within the system make sure to list your boundary conditions. check units of velocity 8. describe the velocity profile you obtain using engineering terminology. sketch that on the same sketch you provided in (1). 9. obtain the equation that describes the volumetric flow rate in the system. check the units.

An alligator swims to the left with a constant velocity of 5 \,\dfrac{\text{m}}{\text s}5 s m ? 5, space, start fraction, m, divided by, s, end fraction. when the alligator sees a bird straight ahead, the alligator speeds up with a constant acceleration of 3 \,\dfrac{\text {m}}{\text s^2}3 s 2 m ? 3, space, start fraction, m, divided by, s, start superscript, 2, end superscript, end fraction leftward until it reaches a final velocity of 35 \,\dfrac{\text {m}}{\text s}35 s m ? 35, space, start fraction, m, divided by, s, end fraction leftward. how many seconds does it take the alligator to speed up from 5 \,\dfrac{\text {m}}{\text s}5 s m ? 5, space, start fraction, m, divided by, s, end fraction to 35 \,\dfrac{\text {m}}{\text s}35 s m ? 35, space, start fraction, m, divided by, s, end fraction?

Awater-filled u-tube manometer is used to measure the pressure inside a tank that contains air. the water level in the u-tube on the side that connects to the tank is 5 ft above the base of the tank. the water level in the other side of the u-tube (which is open to the atmosphere) is 2 ft above the base. determine the pressure within the tank.
