Questions & Step-by-Step Solutions

What is the term for the resistance of a fluid to flow?
  • Step 1: Understand that fluids can be liquids or gases.
  • Step 2: Know that when we talk about fluids, we often think about how easily they can move or flow.
  • Step 3: Realize that some fluids flow easily, while others are thicker and flow slowly.
  • Step 4: The term that describes how much a fluid resists flowing is called 'viscosity.'
  • Step 5: Remember that higher viscosity means more resistance to flow, while lower viscosity means less resistance.
