Two identical flat sqare plates are immersed in the flow with velocity U. Compare the drag forces experienced by the SHAE areas. F > F A. A B F > F B. B A C. FA = FB. It depends on whether the bondary layer is laminar or trblent.! F B F A > F B. Since the shear stress acting on the bondary decreases with increasing distance from the leading edge! w or Re x Re 5 x 5 having more area closer to the leading edge will reslt in a larger drag force on the shaded area.

Since the flow rate is nknown try assming that the flow is in the flly trblent region of the Moody diagram this assmption will need to be verified.
