Questions & Step-by-Step Solutions

In a fluid flowing through a pipe, what effect does increasing the temperature have on its viscosity?
  • Step 1: Understand what viscosity is. Viscosity is a measure of how thick or sticky a fluid is.
  • Step 2: Recognize that temperature can affect how fluids behave.
  • Step 3: Learn that when you heat a fluid, its molecules move faster.
  • Step 4: Realize that faster-moving molecules can slide past each other more easily.
  • Step 5: Conclude that as the temperature increases, the viscosity of the fluid decreases.
  • Step 6: Understand that lower viscosity means the fluid can flow more easily.
