  1. Consider a laminar boundary layer flow over a flat plate for which the velocity profile can be approx- imated by, u/U = 2(y/δ) − 2(y/δ)3 + (y/δ)4

  1. Show that this profile satisfies the appropriate boundary conditions.

  2. Using the momentum integral relation, equ. (9.26), derive expressions for δ/x and τw(x). Inte- grate τw(x) and obtain an expression for the drag coefficient, CD, as a function of Rel, where l is length of plate. Check/compare with results in Table 9.2.
