viscosity is inversely proportional to the flow rate. the actual formula is complex , but higher the viscosity slower will be the flow rate. honey flows slowly and air flows freely because of the above reason.viscosity is also essential,otherwise we would have never been able to use an ink pen.viscosity makes the ink to flow on paper

∙ 14y agoviscosity is the friction between different layers of the fluid be it water or honey as you know that honey is more viscous than water thus its flow rate will be less than honey than water thus more viscous the fluid less will be its flow rate
Wiki User
∙ 14y agoIt's an inverse relationship. Low viscosity (example: water) has a high/fast flow rate. High viscosity (example: honey) has a low flow rate.
Wiki User
∙ 12y agoit is related because the higher viscosity the slower the flow rate so the viscosity changes the flow rate rapidly.
Wiki User
∙ 9y agoViscosity and flow rate are related in that they are directly proportional. The thicker the viscosity, the slower the flow rate.
Wiki User
∙ 9y agoThe more viscous the liquid (higher the viscosity), the lower flow rate you will have for a given "pipe" and pressure difference.
Wiki User
∙ 10y agoA quick flow rate means the viscosity is thin, while a slow rate means a thicker fluid.

What is The rate at which liquids flow is called?
Viscosity is the term.
Why do some liquids flow more slowly than others?
The viscosity of the fluid controls its flow rate. A higher viscosity reduces the flow.
What is vescocity?
Rate of flow any liquids is called viscosity... Viscosity depends on the density...
What is the graph of flow versus viscosity?
The graph for flow vs viscosity shows flow and viscosity being inversely proportional. This means that the higher the viscosity, the lower the flow, and vice versa.
Water has a relatively low viscosity it will what?
allow substances to diffuse through it it moves faster than a liquid with a relatively high viscosity
How is viscosity related to flow rate?
Viscosity is a substances resistance to flow. So as the viscosity of a substance increases, the flow rate will decrease.
Relationship between flow time and viscosity?
The higher the viscosity, the lower the flow rate.
How does viscosity relate to flow rate?
High viscosity lead to a low flow rate and inverse.
What is The rate at which liquids flow is called?
Viscosity is the term.
What does the viscosity of a fluid tell you about it flow rate?
it tells you, the higher the viscosity and the thicker the substance is the lower the flow rate hope this helped!:) :) peace

What is vescocity?
Rate of flow any liquids is called viscosity... Viscosity depends on the density...
Why do various kinds of liquids not flow at the same rate?
different viscosity
What is a difference in flow rates and viscosities between substances when heated?
Viscosity and flow rate increases with the temperature.
How liquids flow?
Liquids flow because they have the ability to resist compression. The rate at which it flows depends on the viscosity of the liquid.
What viscosity level was the fluid flow rate the highest?
The relationship between radius and fluid flow rate is inversely proportional. As radius goes down, fluid flow rate goes up. The highest fluid flow rate will be at the lowest radius.
What is the effect of the temperature on the flow rate and the viscosity of a liquid?
HSP With increase in temp.the viscosity of liquids decreases,thereby increasing the flow rate and vice versa.The decrease in viscosity with rising temp.is due to the fact that the intermolecular attraction decreases and the cohesive forces increases. This does not apply with water
