Consider a steady two dimensional zero-pressure grad ient lami
nar flow of air over a flat plate as
shown below. The free stream conditions are U ∞ = 100 ms -1, ρ∞ = 1.2 kg m -3, p ∞ = 1 atm and
kg m -1s-1. The ratio of displacement thic kness to momentum thickness of the
boundary layer at a distance of 2 m from the leading edge is
