0 sys d
where U is the stream velocity far from the wall and d is the
boundary layer thickness, as in Fig.

helium at 20°C and 1 atm, and if U = 10.8 m/s and 8= 3 cm,
use the formula to (a) estimate the wall shear stress Tw in
Pa, and (b) find the position in the boundary layer where t
is one-half of Tw.
