Problem2
A block of mass m is sliding over an inclined plane and is connected by a cable to a solid of fixed
mass M. In a first experiment, an oil of viscosity μ₁ is used, resulting in a terminal velocity V₁ of
the block. When an oil of viscosity μ₂ is used, the terminal velocity is V₂. Note that the block
mass m, and the suspended mass M are the same in both experiments.
a) Assuming a linear velocity profile in the gap between the bloc and the inclined plane, show
that the ratio of the two viscosities is inversely proportional to that of the two speeds.
b) When an oil of viscosity 0.1Pa.s is used, the terminal velocity is 20cm/s. Determine the value
of the terminal velocity when a liquid with a viscosity twice that of the oil is used.
