    Calculating Viscosity of Newtonian Fluid

    Yes, yes I did. So then the viscosity would be .893, so would that make the Newtonian fluid be water? Water is at 1 Centipose and that's the closest thing to my answer. Thanks for the look out Nick :smile:

    Calculating Viscosity of Newtonian Fluid

    Homework Statement A shearing force of 100 dynes is applied to the side of a rectangular plate of 5 x 10 cm dimensions placed on top of a 0.5 mm high column of Newtonian fluid that is initially at rest. As a result of the shearing force, the plate moves at a speed of 11.2 cm/sec. What is the...
