2. The viscosity of a fluid is to be measured by an viscometer constructed of two 75–cm–long concentric cylinders. The outer dia
meter of the inner cylinder is 15 cm, and the gap between the two cylinders is 0.12 cm. The inner cylinder is rotated at 200 rpm, and the torque is measured to be 0.8 N-m. Determine the viscosity of the fluid.

Answer:
<em>2.78m/s²</em>
Explanation:
Complete question:
<em>A box is placed on a 30° frictionless incline. What is the acceleration of the box as it slides down the incline when the co-efficient of friction is 0.25?</em>
According to Newton's second law of motion:
Where:
is the coefficient of friction
g is the acceleration due to gravity
Fm is the moving force acting on the body
Ff is the frictional force
m is the mass of the box
a is the acceleration'
Given
Required
acceleration of the box
Substitute the given parameters into the resulting expression above:
Recall that:
9.8sin30 - 0.25(9.8)cos30 = ax
9.8(0.5) - 0.25(9.8)(0.866) = ax
4.9 - 2.1217 = ax
ax = 2.78m/s²
<em>Hence the acceleration of the box as it slides down the incline is 2.78m/s²</em>
