A liquid fills a horizontal capillary tube whose one end is dipped in a large pool of the liquid. Experiments show that the distance $L$ travelled by the liquid meniscus inside the capillary in time $t$ is given by

$L = k \gamma^a R^b \mu^c \sqrt{t},$

where $ \gamma $ is the surface tension, $ R $ is the inner radius of the capillary, and $ \mu $ is the dynamic viscosity of the liquid. If $ k $ is a dimensionless constant, then the exponent $ a $ is _______ (rounded off to 1 decimal place).

Consider fluid flow between two infinite horizontal plates which are parallel (the gap between them being $$50$$ $$mm$$). The top plate is sliding parallel to the stationary bottom plate at a speed of $$3$$ $$m/s.$$ The flow between the plates is solely due to the motion of the top plate. The force per unit area (magnitude) required to maintain the bottom plate stationary is _______________ $$N/{m^2}.$$

Viscosity of the fluid $$\mu = 0.44\,\,kg/m$$-$$s$$ and density $$\rho = 888$$ $$kg/{m^3}.$$

In a simple concentric shaft-bearing arrangement, the lubricant flows in the $$2$$ $$mm$$ gap between the shaft and the bearing. The flow may be assumed to be a plane Couette flow with zero pressure gradient. The diameter of the shaft is $$100$$ $$mm$$ and its tangential speed is $$10$$ $$m/s.$$ The dynamic viscosity of the lubricant is $$0.1$$ $$kg/m.s.$$ The frictional resisting force (in newton) per $$100$$ $$mm$$ length of the bearing is ______________.
