Kinematic viscosities of some common liquids like motor oil, diesel oil, peanut oil and many more.
Viscosity is the resistance to shear or flow in a fluid – and a measure of the adhesive/cohesive or frictional property. The viscosity that arises due to internal molecular friction produces the frictional drag effect.
There are two related measures of fluid viscosity – known as dynamic viscosity. ( Where absolute ) e kinematics .
