An oil is used to lubricate a thin plate with a surface area of 5.382 ft² that is placed between two surfaces that is .945 inches apart. What force (N) is required to drag the thin plate at a speed of 0.6 m/s, if: a) the thin plate is in the middle of the two plane surfaces (assuming the thickness of the plate is negligible), and b) the thin plate is at a distance of 0.315 in from one of the plane surfaces? Take the dynamic viscosity of the oil as 8.10 x 10-1 N s/m².
