Viscosity vs. Density

Viscositynoun

(uncountable) The state of being viscous.

Viscositynoun

A quantity expressing the magnitude of internal friction in a fluid, as measured by the force per unit area resisting uniform flow.

Viscositynoun

A tendency to prolong interpersonal encounters.

Viscositynoun

The quality or state of being viscous.

Viscositynoun

A property possessed by a viscous fluid, being a resistance to the forces causing a fluid to flow, caused by interactions between the molecules of the fluid and between the fluid and the walls of the conduit through which it moves; also, a measure of such a property.

Viscositynoun

resistance of a liquid to sheer forces (and hence to flow)

Viscosity

The viscosity of a fluid is a measure of its resistance to deformation at a given rate. For liquids, it corresponds to the informal concept of : for example, syrup has a higher viscosity than water.Viscosity can be conceptualized as quantifying the internal frictional force that arises between adjacent layers of fluid that are in relative motion.

Densitynoun

(physics) A measure of the mass of matter contained by a unit volume.

Densitynoun

The ratio of one quantity to another quantity.

Densitynoun

The probability that an event will occur, as a function of some observed variable.

Densitynoun

The quality of being dense, close, or thick; compactness; - opposed to rarity.

Densitynoun

The ratio of mass, or quantity of matter, to bulk or volume, esp. as compared with the mass and volume of a portion of some substance used as a standard.

Densitynoun

Depth of shade.

Densitynoun

the amount per unit size

Densitynoun

the spatial property of being crowded together

Density

The density (more precisely, the volumetric mass density; also known as specific mass), of a substance is its mass per unit volume. The symbol most often used for density is ρ (the lower case Greek letter rho), although the Latin letter D can also be used.
