The figure below describes the flow of a thin layer of biodiesel on an inclined, wide plate at a certain velocity. If h = 25 10-3 ft. and  = 0.35 rad, compute the surface velocity, U. Bear in mind that at equilibrium the component of weight acting parallel to the plate surface must be balanced by the shearing force developed along the plate surface. In your analysis assume a unit plate width.
