Find the shear stress and the thickness of the boundary layer (a) at the center and (b) at the trailing edge of a smooth flat plate 10 ft wide and 2 ft long parallel to the flow, immersed in 60F water (=1.938 slug/ft3, =1.217×10-5ft2/s =2.359×10-5 lbf. s/ft2) flowing at an undisturbed velocity of 3 ft/s. Assume laminar boundary layer over the whole plate. Also (f) find the total friction drag on one side of the plate.

Two manned satellites approaching one another at a relative speed of 0.550 m/s intend to dock. the first has a mass of 2.50 ✕ 103 kg, and the second a mass of 7.50 ✕ 103 kg. assume that the positive direction is directed from the second satellite towards the first satellite. (a) calculate the final velocity after docking, in the frame of reference in which the first satellite was originally at rest.(b) what is the loss of kinetic energy in this inelastic collision? (c) repeat both parts, in the frame of reference in which the second satellite was originally at rest. final velocity(d) loss of kinetic energy = ?
