Crude Oil is flowing through a circular pipe with a centerline velocity of a 0.5 m/s at a temperature of 60° C and a viscosity of 5.5 m. Pa.s. Determine the shear stress at the pipe surface if a parabolic velocity distribution is assumed. Also, indicate the kinematic viscosity of the crude oil at the given temperature. The density of the crude oil is 855 kg/m³, and the pipe diameter is 20 mm.
