What is the degree to which a substance resists flow known as?
For resistance to electrical flow, the term is specific resistance of a substance.The resistance of a fluid (gas, liquid) to flowing is called its viscosity, referred to colloquially as its thickness.
Explain the relationship between voltage current and resistance?
The ratio of voltage to current is called resistance. In hydraulic terms, you can equate voltage to the difference in pressure between two points, current with the resulting flow of fluid between those points , and resistance as the opposition to that flow.
What is the characteristic of a material that hinders electron flow?
It is called resistance Good conductors have a bad resistance While bad conductors or insulators have good resistance against the flow of electricity
The opposition to the flow of electrons through a conductor?
In the simplest case, that would be resistance - but there is also another type of opposition (only relevant for AC) called reactance. The combined effect of resistance and reactance is called impedance.
What is the opposition to the current flow?
resistance is the opposition to the flow of electric charge
A fluid resistance to flow?
A fluid's resistance to flow is called viscosity.
Is it true that condensation is the resistance of a fluid to flow?
No, resistance to flow is viscosity.
What is the viscosity of a fluid?
resistance to fluid flow.
What is the degree to which a substance resists flow known as?

The resistance of a fluid to flow is referred to as?
SOLID
Does resistance to electrical current flow have the same meaning as resistance to fluid flow?
no, a better analog is reactance
What is The opposite of fluidity is the resistance of a fluid to flow?
Viscisity
What is the measure of resistance to the flow of fluid?
When fluids-- liquids or gases-- move through pipes or ducts, they meet resistance. Resistance occurs because outer layers of the fluid are "held back" by a friction-like force as the layers slide by the walls of the pipe or duct. Resistance occurs also between fluid layers within the fluid as they slide past one another. Whatever the cause, fluid resistance in a pipe or duct affects both (1) flow rate and (2) pressure drop along the pipe.
An irregular fluid flow is what?
Irregular Fluid Flow is called Turbulent Flow! I hope this helped! :D
What is the coefficient of viscosity?
A measure of the resistance to flow of a fluid under an applied force.
Opposition to electron flow is called?
Resistance
What is a material that can flow easily called?
A material that can easily flow is called a fluid.
