What classifies as a fluid?

Fluid is a substance that continually deforms(flows) under an applied shear stress. All gases are fluids, but not all liquids are fluids. Fluids are a subset of the phases of matter and include liquids, gases, plasmas and, to some extent,plastic solids.

Runny depends on the viscosity of a fluid. if the viscosity is high( mayonaise) the fluid will not run as good as a fluid with low viscosity (water, honey)


What does fluid mean?

A fluid is any liquid or gas that cannot sustain a shearing force when at rest and that undergoes a continuous change in shape when subjected to such a stress. Compressed fluids exert an outward pressure that is perpendicular to the walls of their containers. A perfect fluid lacks viscosity, but real fluids do not.

How do you distinguish between a fluid and a non fluid?

fluids and non fluids can both take the shape of a container because sand can pour just as easily as water, however, fluids will stay in one particular area, but non fluids can easily spread out because for example sand, grains of sand have their own particular particles. liquids are one in total, therefore they share their particles.
