A cylindrical tube full of water is stirred until the water starts rotating 1 rad/s. Then the stirring is stopped. How long will it take for the rotation speed to slow down by a factor of 100? The cylinder's radius is 4 cm and it's height is much longer than it's radius. The viscosity of water is 1,0 mPa * s and the density of water is 1 kg/dm^3.
