Variables Used
Stokes Force - (Measured in Newton) - Stokes Force is the force of viscosity on a small sphere moving through a viscous fluid.
Radius - (Measured in Meter) - Radius is a radial line from the focus to any point of a curve.
Dynamic Viscosity of Fluid - (Measured in Pascal Second) - Dynamic Viscosity of Fluid is the measure of its resistance to flow when an external force is applied.
Velocity of Moving Plate on Liquid - (Measured in Meter per Second) - Velocity of Moving Plate on Liquid is the velocity of the moving plate with respect to fixed plate.
