2. A vertical cylinder of diameter 16 cm rotates concentrically inside another cylinder of
diameter 16.1 cm. The clearance space between the cylinders is filled with a liquid of unknown
viscosity which has a linear viscosity profile and both cylinders are 24 cm high. Find the
viscosity of the liquid if a torque of 10 Nm is required to rotate the inner cylinder at a speed of
50 rpm.
3. A skater weighing 500 N skates at 10 m/s and is supported by an average skating area of
10 cm². If the viscosity of water is 1 centipoise and the coefficient of friction between skates
and ice is 0.02, then find the thickness of thin film of water existing between the skates and the

4.
A logging firm in Isabella operates a Diesel Electric Plant to supply its electric energy
requirements. During a 2-hour period, the plant consumed 250 gallons of fuel at 80°F and
produced 2900 kW-hrs. Industrial fuel is used at 30°API and was purchased at P30/li at 60°F.
Determine the overall thermal efficiency of the plant.
