The gap between a moving circular plate and a stationary surface is being continuously reduced, as the circular plate comes down at a uniform speed $$V$$ towards the stationary bottom surface, as shown in the figure. In the process, the fluid contained between the two plates flows out radially. The fluid is assumed to be incompressible and inviscid.

A leaf is caught in a whirlpool. At a given instant, the leaf is at a distance of $$120$$ $$m$$ from the centre of the whirlpool. The whirlpool can be described by the following velocitry distribution ;
$${V_r} = - \left( {{{60 \times {{10}^3}} \over {2\pi r}}} \right)m/s$$
and $${V_\theta } = - \left( {{{300 \times {{10}^3}} \over {2\pi r}}} \right)m/s.$$
$${V_r} = - \left( {{{60 \times {{10}^3}} \over {2\pi r}}} \right)m/s$$
and $${V_\theta } = - \left( {{{300 \times {{10}^3}} \over {2\pi r}}} \right)m/s.$$
Where $$r$$ (in meters) is the distance from the centre of the whirlpool . What will be the distance of the leaf from the centre when it has moved through half a revolution?
