A horizontal rectangular plastic pipe of width w and height h, is filled with mercury of resistivity . An
overpressure P is produced by a turbine which drives this fluid with a constant speed 0v . The two opposite vertical

Although the fluid is viscous, its speed is uniform over the entire cross-section.
The speed of the fluid is always proportional to the net external force acting upon it.
The fluid is incompressible.
