Viscosity is a measure of the resistance a liquid has to moving.
Examples of high viscosity: honey, lava, molaces, corn syrup
Remember that viscocity is a measurement of a liquid's resistence to flow. We can perceive relative viscocity with our senses. The temperatures of liquids may effect their viscosity.

supplement. In the Smithsonian Museum, they have a demonstration of a long running experiment where some bitumen was placed in a funnel and allowed to drip through. I think one drip has been made(?) Check out their website.

Do all liquids flow very easily?
Runny depends on the viscosity of a fluid. if the viscosity is high( mayonaise) the fluid will not run as good as a fluid with low viscosity (water, honey)
Does krakatau have low or high viscosity?
high viscosity
Does an increase in silica increase the viscosity of magma?
Yes. Viscosity is the resistance of a fluid to flowing. A high viscosity means low flowing (I specifically mention this because this is a huge pitfall) When silica content increases, and when temperature decreases, the viscosity of a magma increases along with it.
How can the viscosity of a fluid vary?
yes
What is liquids resistance to flowing is called?
The resistance of a liquid to flowing is its viscosity.Viscosity is a property arising from friction between neighboring particles in a fluid that are moving at different velocities. In liquids, it could be considered the "thickness". For example, maple syrup has a higher viscosity than water.
What is the viscosity definitions?
Viscosity is a fluids resistance to flow. A high viscosity fluid would be thick, a low viscosity fluid would be thin.

What the fluid measure of viscosity?
Viscosity is the measure of friction between adjacent layers of materials.
What liqiud has high viscosity?
An example of a liquid with a high viscosity is Molasses… essentially, a liquid with a high viscosity is one that flows very slowly
What is the speed of a liquid?
I think you may be talking about viscosity. The viscosity of a liquid is its resistance to flow, or its thickness. A less viscous liquid will flow more quickly than a more viscous fluid. As an example, water has very low viscosity and molasses has a high viscosity.
What is the viscosity of liquids?
viscosity is one of the properties of liquids ans is associated with flow of water.defination:viscosity is defined as the force of friction between two layers of liquids moving past one another with different velocities
What is an example of a liquid with high viscosity?
Lava has a rather high viscosity compared to most liquids.
How does viscosity affect fluid?
The higher the viscosity, the less it will flow..so something like water has a low viscosity, and something like custard has a high viscosity :)hope i helped xx
Water has a relatively low viscosity it will what?
allow substances to diffuse through it it moves faster than a liquid with a relatively high viscosity
if a substance pours very slowly it has a high what?
The characteristic is called viscosity. Viscosity is the quality that describes a fluid's resistance to flow.(It is what is more commonly called the thickness of a fluid.)
What is the difference between fluid viscosity?
Some fluids are more denser than other fluids. For example, shampoo is more denser than Ketchup or oil or water. Therefore, it has a higher viscosity! The thick/denser/sticker a fluid is the higher the concentrtation of viscosity. Here is a range of some fluids put from high viscosity to low concentration of viscosity: 1: Shampoo 2: Ketchup 3: Corn oil 4: Water Water has a really low concentration of viscosity.
What does a high Plasma viscosity level mean in a blood test?
Viscosity is the thickness of a fluid. Example, Petrol would have a low viscosity compared to engine oil. So I would say The Plasma is thicker than normal. It means your blood is thick, look up ways to prevent this.
