Blood is viscous, as it contains a hugely populous density of red blood cells therefore making it viscous. A comparison would be to water, which is less than 3 times as viscous as blood, as it contains around less than 3 times the amount of molecules than in blood.

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.


Does Pascal's law apply to viscous fluids?

No, Pascal's law applies to non-viscous (incompressible) fluids. Viscous fluids have internal friction that causes them to resist flow and deform. This results in a different behavior compared to non-viscous fluids governed by Pascal's law.


Where is the most viscous blood?

Blood viscosity is a measure of overall blood thickness. Therefore, there is no one place in the body where blood is more viscous than others. However, factors such as cholesterol, smoking, or some illnesses your blood may be more viscous than normal.


Which one hardens faster runny or thick lava?

Thick, highly viscous lava.


What is the difference between viscous and non viscous fluid flow?

Viscous fluid flow occurs when a fluid's viscosity causes resistance to flow, leading to the formation of layers within the fluid. Non-viscous fluid flow, on the other hand, involves a fluid that flows without resistance or layering, typically with low viscosity.


Is salt viscous?

Molten salt is viscous.


What is a non viscous flow?

Viscosity denotes opposition to flow.


Does ketchup have viscous?

By viscous, I think you mean viscosity. Viscous is a adjective referring to the thickness of a substance; therefore, yes, ketchup is somewhat viscous.


Difference between viscous and non viscous lava?

Viscous lava is very sticky and thick and is more felsic (ie it contains more silica) than non-viscous lava. This type of lava makes for a very explosive volcano, because it's so sticky that it sticks to itself and can't exit the volcano until it explodes violently. Non-viscous lava is more runny and is more mafic (has more iron, less silica). Volcanoes with non-viscous lava are less explosive because the lava just runs out slowly and no pressure builds. The Hawaiian islands are formed from volcanoes with non-viscous lava.


What is hemocentration?

Hemoconcentration is blood that has little fluid in it, making the blood portion less viscous.


What is an example of high and low viscous material?

Viscosity is a measurement of how much a liquid resists flow or deformation -- viscous liquids tend to move more slowly than non-viscous liquids. An example of a highly viscous liquid might be honey or molasses; vinegar and water have low viscosity.


Is there a word that means the opposite of 'viscous'?

The opposite of viscous is runny.
