For the situation shown in the figure, water flows on the surface of a fixed plate. The
velocity of water as a function of distance $'y'$ is given as : $u = \alpha \left[ {\frac{y}{h} - 2{{\left( {\frac{y}{h}} \right)}^2}} \right]$ . Determine the magnitude of the shear stress that the water applies at the base of the plate. Coefficient of viscosity is $\eta$
