Best Answer

viscosity is a property of fluids ( the substances can flow) ; and it is a measure of resistance to flow due to cohesiveness forces of the two adjacent layers of that fluid.

as we increased the temperature of the fluid the viscosity goes on decreasing and the fluid tendency to pressurize is keep on increasing.

but until the fluid becomes gas from liquid ; that fluid can not be pressurized.

so yes we can pressurize a viscous material by application of heat if the phase change takes place and the material turns to gaseous phase.

What is a mantle in the earth?

The Earths mantle is the viscous layer between the core and the crust. It is hot because of heat from the core, and part-liquid because it is composed of material with a moderate melting point. This mantle is the source of the volcanic material. Silica is a major component.


Does a candle become less viscous with heat?

No, if the fuel remains the same (the wax) the flame and heat will remain the same.


What is an example of high and low viscous material?

Viscosity is a measurement of how much a liquid resists flow or deformation -- viscous liquids tend to move more slowly than non-viscous liquids. An example of a highly viscous liquid might be honey or molasses; vinegar and water have low viscosity.

What will happen when a cold material interacts with a hot material?

The heat will transfer from the hot material to the cold material. Heat tends to go where it is not.


How much the temperature of a material is changed by heat energy depends?

It depends on the amount of material (its mass), on how much heat energy is added, and on the material's heat capacity.
