You have developed a new water pump that uses two belts to pull water up from a reservoir (see figure). The belts are both moving at the same speed (15.7 cm/s), and the fluid has a density of 0.96 g/cm^3 and a viscosity of 0.047 g/(cm*s). What is the flow rate per unit width (in cm^2/s) of the belt that the pump will pull out of the reservoir if the gap between the belts is 0.037 cm? You can use a value of 980 cm/s^2 for g.

You have developed a new water pump
that uses two belts to pull water up from a
reservoir (see figure). The belts are both
moving at the same speed (15.7 cm/s), and
the fluid has a density of 0.96 g/cm^3 and a
viscosity of 0.047 g/(cm*s). What is the flow
rate per unit width (in cm^2/s) of the belt
that the pump will pull out of the reservoir
if the gap between the belts is 0.037 cm?
You can use a value of 980 cm/s^2 for g.
