A Newtonian fluid of viscosity μ flows between two parallel plates due to the motion of the bottom plate (as shown below), which is moved with a velocity V. The top plate is stationary.
The steady, laminar velocity profile in the x-direction is
A
v[y/b]
B
v[(y/b)2-1]
C
V[1-(y/b)2]
D
V[1-y/b]

Correct : d
