1. The resistance to fluid motion, or internal resistance of fluid is called _______. 1.
2. __________ measures resistance to flow arising due to the internal friction 2.
between the fluid layers as they slip past one another when fluid flows.
3. _________ is a measure of a fluid's thickness (stickiness) or its resistance to 3.
objects passing through it.
4. A fluid with large viscosity resists motion because its strong _________ forces 4.
give it a lot of internal friction.

between the molecules.
6. The SI unit of viscosity is _________. 6.
7. Shear stress is the shearing force per unit ________. 7.
8. __________ is defined as the ratio of shearing stress to the velocity gradient. 8.
9. The drag force acting upward in resistance to the fall of a spherical object in a 9.
viscous liquid is ________ proportional to the radius of the object.
10. The drag force acting upward in resistance to the fall of a spherical object in a 10.

Ch03-Q0-B: Say True (or) False.
1. Most of the fluids are not ideal ones and offer some resistance to motion. 1.
2. Viscosity arises when there is relative motion between layers of the fluid. 2.
3. A fluid with low viscosity flows easily. 3.
4. Gases do not exhibit viscosity. 4.
5. The viscosity of liquids decreases rapidly with an increase in temperature. 5.
6. With increase in temperature, cohesive force decreases in magnitude. 6.
7. The viscosity of gases increases with an increase in temperature. 7.
8. In gases, the important cause of viscosity is molecular collision. 8.
9. Due to rise in temperature, kinetic energy of molecules increases which makes root 9.
mean square velocity increase.
10. Upon heating, liquids flow more easily. 10.
11. Upon heating, gases flow more slowly. 11.
12. Viscosity does not change as the amount of matter changes. 12.
13. Viscosity is an extensive property. 13.
14. Intensive property does not depend on mass. 14.
15. At the terminal velocity, the upward and downward forces are in balance. 15.
