I have read that glass is actually a very viscous liquid, and that the windows of cathedrals built hundreds
of years ago are thicker at the bottom of the pane than at the top, because the glass has flowed downward
through the centuries. When I read that, it fascinated me for two reasons.
The second reason was: How in the world do you measure the thickness of a windowpane that's set in a giant wall,
and which you cannot open or remove ???
What else can I help you with?
Is lava a liquid or a gas?
Lava is a liquid. It is molten rock that flows like a thick fluid when erupted from a volcano.
Is gluep a solid or a liquid?
Glue in fact is a solid, liquid, and gas. It is liquid when it is in the bottle, It releases gas when it is curing, and when it is cured it is a solid. This is true for most glues, others are different.
What do you need to add to oobleck to make it just a solid?
To make oobleck just a solid, you would need to add a material like cornstarch or starch in higher proportions to the liquid (water) until it forms a consistent, solid-like structure that no longer flows like a liquid.
Is jam a liquid or a solid?
no jam is a solid because it is a solid Jam is often considered to be a 'suspension' - a state in which particles of a substance and mixed with a fluid but undissolved. Also, the word 'gel' applies in which particles of fruit are dispersed in a liquid medium which has become viscous enough to behave more or less like a solid
What is pepper a solid liquid or gas?

Is the mantle a solid?

Is Magic Mud a solid or a liquid?
Both because sometimes it is solid and others it is liquid. It is also called 'Convertive Material'
Is asthensphere a liquid?
No. The asthenosphere is what is called a viscoelastic material. On the time scale we are familiar with it behaves as a solid, but on extremely long time scales of thousands to millions of years it flows like a viscous liquid.
Is lava a liquid or a gas?
Lava is a liquid. It is molten rock that flows like a thick fluid when erupted from a volcano.
Is ooblek a solid or liquid?
Ooblek is a non-Newtonian fluid, meaning that it can behave as both a liquid and a solid depending on the force applied to it. It flows like a liquid under low stress but can harden and resist force like a solid under high stress.
Is hot gravy a solid or a liquid and why?
Is hot gravy a solid or liquid Ans=liquid.
What is a liquid that can turn into a solid called?
A liquid that can turn into a solid is called a "freezing" or "solidification" process. This occurs when a liquid's temperature decreases to its freezing point, causing its particles to slow down and arrange into a more structured, solid form.
What is it called when solid melts into a liquid?
You have answered the question for yourself. It is called 'MELTING'. Solid to liquid = melting liquid to gas = boiling Solid to gas = sublimation. Gas to liquid = condensation Liquid to solid = freezing.
What is the semifluid?
A semifluid is a substance that has properties of both a liquid and a solid. It flows like a liquid but also exhibits some degree of resistance to flow, similar to a solid. Examples include toothpaste and mayonnaise.
Is play dough a soild or a liquid?
a solid, It does not exhibit the properties of a liquid at rest. A substance that acts like a liquid and a solid is called a non-newtonian fluid
Is gluep a solid or a liquid?

Area of rock that flows like a thick liquid?
The area of rock that flows like a thick liquid is called lava. Lava is molten rock that erupts from a volcano and can flow slowly downhill, resembling the movement of a thick liquid.
