(D) According to Newton's law of viscosity,the shearing stress $	au$ is given by $	au = \eta \frac{dv}{dy}$.Here,$	au = 10^{-3} \, N/m^2$,$\eta = 10^{-2} \, Pa \cdot s$,and the velocity gradient $\frac{dv}{dy} = \frac{v}{h}$,where $v$ is the velocity of the upper layer and $h$ is the depth of the river.First,convert the velocity $v$ into $SI$ units: $v = 36 \, km/h = 36 	imes \frac{5}{18} \, m/s = 10 \, m/s$.Substituting the values into the formula: $10^{-3} = 10^{-2} 	imes \frac{10}{h}$.Rearranging for $h$: $h = \frac{10^{-2} 	imes 10}{10^{-3}} = \frac{10^{-1}}{10^{-3}} = 10^2 = 100 \, m$.Thus,the depth of the river is $100 \, m$.

The velocity of the upper layer of water in a river is $36 \, km/h$. The shearing stress between horizontal layers of water is $10^{-3} \, N/m^2$. The depth of the river is $h$. (The coefficient of viscosity of water is $10^{-2} \, Pa \cdot s$). Find the value of $h$ in meters.

Viscosity is the property of a liquid due to which it :

$A$ Newtonian fluid fills the clearance between a shaft and a sleeve. When a force of $800$ $N$ is applied to the shaft,parallel to the sleeve,the shaft attains a speed of $1.5$ $cm/s$. If a force of $2.4$ $kN$ is applied instead,the shaft would move with a speed of ......... $cm/s$.

$A$ liquid having a coefficient of viscosity $0.02 \, \text{decapoise}$ is filled in a container of cross-sectional area $20 \, m^2$. If the viscous drag between two adjacent layers in flowing is $1 \, N$, then the velocity gradient is ........ $s^{-1}$.
