In order to determine the viscosity of a Newtonian fluid, you conducted an experiment at 20°C . The bottom plate is fixed and cannot move. The distance between bottom plate and upper plate is 30 cm. You apply different shear stress values (0,3-0,6 and 0,9 N/m2) and measured the velocity of the upper plate (0,095-0,191 and 0,282 m/s). a) Calculate the viscosity of the fluid. b) if the experiment was conducted at 30°C, do you think if the measured velocities of the upper plate will be higher or lower? (Assume you apply same shear stresses) Explain why.

Question
In order to determine the viscosity of a Newtonian fluid, you conducted
an experiment at 20°C.
The bottom plate is fixed and cannot move. The distance between
bottom plate and upper plate is 30 cm. You apply different shear stress
values (0,3-0,6 and 0,9 N/m2) and measured the velocity of the upper
plate (0,095-0,191 and 0,282 m/s).
a) Calculate the viscosity of the fluid.
b) if the experiment was conducted at 30°C, do you think if the
measured velocities of the upper plate will be higher or lower?
(Assume you apply same shear stresses) Explain why.
