What is the definition of viscous drag in an oil lubricant?

If a fluid in laminar flow flows around an obstacle, it exerts a viscous drag on the obstacle. Frictional forces accelerate the fluid backward (against the direction of flow) and the obstacle forward (in the direction of flow). The viscous drag force increases linearly with the speed of the fluid.


What is the slowing down of an object by a liquid or by air?

This is known as the viscous drag on the movement of the body due to viscosity of the fluid.


Is viscous liquid a sludge?

no. but a sludge is a viscous liquid


What is the force called between liquid particles?

viscosity. Viscosity is the inherent force of a liquid which opposes the relative movement between layers of the said liquid.


Define volatile and viscous?

Viscous means how thick a LIQUID is and how tightly the particles are packed together if the liquid is thick(less runny) it is more viscous if the liquid is thin(more runny) it is less viscous


What factor affects the viscosity?

Temperature, concentration, sometimes also internal fluid velocity. Moreover density, type of liquid, surface where it flows, viscous drag.


What does the word non viscous mean?

Non-viscous is a scientific term that refers to the pouring characteristic of a liquid. A non-viscous liquid is one that pours thinly, with minimal bulging, drop formation or trailing string formation. An example of a non-viscous liquid would be alcohol; a viscous liquid (the opposite) would be maple syrup.
