The velocity profile inside the boundary layer for flow over a flat plate is given as $${u \over {{U_\infty }}} = \sin \left( {{\pi \over 2}\,{y \over \delta }} \right),$$ where $${U_\infty }$$ is the free stream velocity and $$'\delta '$$ is the local boundary layer thickness. If $${\delta ^ * }$$ is the local displacement thickness, the value of $${{{\delta ^ * }} \over \delta }$$ is
A
$${2 \over \pi }$$
B
$$1 - {2 \over \pi }$$

A steady laminar boundary layer is formed over a flat plate as shown in the figure. The free stream velocity of the fluid is $${U_0}.$$ The velocity profile at the inlet $$a$$-$$b$$ is uniform, while that at a downstream location $$c$$-$$d$$ is
given by $$u = {U_0}\left[ {2\left( {{y \over \delta }} \right) - {{\left( {{y \over \delta }} \right)}^2}} \right]$$ GATE ME 2016 Set 1 Fluid Mechanics - Boundary Layer Question 8 English
