Explanation:

Viscosity:

It is the property of a fluid, by virtue of which it opposes the relative motion between its different layers.

There are particularly two kinds of fluid viscosity - Dynamic and Kinematic.

  1. Dynamic Viscosity:
    • It is the measurement of the resistance to the movement of one layer of fluid over another.
    • Dimensional Formula - ML-1T-1.
  2. Kinematic Viscosity
    • It is the measurement of a fluid’s inherent resistance to the flow when no external force except gravity is acting on it.
    • Dimensional Formula  L2-1.
