Use the 1/7 power-law profile and compute the drag force and boundary layer thickness on a plate 20 ft long and 10 ft wide (for one side) if it is immersed in a flow of water of 20 ft/s velocity. Assume turbulent flow to exist over the entire length of the plate. What would the drag be if laminar flow could be maintained over the entire surface?
