Question

What is a viscous liquid ? Give Examples...

Answer 1

A viscous liquid can be described as follows:

Explanation:

• In simple terms, a viscous liquid can be described as a type of liquid which will not flow easily.
• The particles in a viscous liquid will not move easily, they will be sluggish.
• Examples of sluggish liquid are oil and syrup.
• The viscosity of a fluid is a measure of its resistance to deformation at a given rate.

Answer 2

Fluids with high viscosity and has more flow resistance are known as viscous fluid.

Explanation:

• Viscosity is a fluid factor, which means the resistance between the fluid layers. It generally refer to the thickness of the liquid

• Viscosity is measure of the resistance of a fluid and its ability to resist being deformed by shear or tensile stress between the liquid layers.
• Examples of viscous fluids are honey, ketchup,  oils, glycerin, tar and sulfuric acid, etc.
