Students have asked these similar questions
The value of viscosity of a fluid represents a measure of how easily the given fluid can flow. The higher the viscosity value is, the more resistance the fluid offers to flow. For example, it would require less energy to transport water in a pipe than it would to transport motor oil or glycerin. The viscosity of many fluids is governed by Newton's law of viscosity du T = µ- dy where T = shear stress (N/m²) µ = viscosity du = change in flow speed (m/s) over a height dy (m) What are the appropriate units for viscosity?
