Fluid viscosity is responsible for the dissipation of useful energy to low
temperature heat which can be considered as "useless" energy or entropy. Which
of the following statements about dynamic viscosity μ are correct?
(i)
μ decreases with increasing temperature in liquid because the vibration
energy diminishes the effect of intermolecular attraction.
(ii)
μ decreases with increasing temperature in gas because the vibration
energy diminishes the effect of intermolecular attraction.
μ increases with increasing temperature in gas because the random
motion of gas molecules increases resulting in more collisions and hence
greater resistance to flow.
