A square plate of 60 cm side slides down a plane inclined at 30° to the horizontal at a uniform speed of 10 cm/s. The plate weighs 3 kg and a thin oil film of thickness 1.5 mm fills the spacing between the plate and the plane. Calculate the viscosity of the filling oil and the shear at both surfaces.
