Question

Newton's law of viscosity is a relationship between

• A. shear stress and the rate of angular distortion
• B. shear stress and viscosity
• C. shear stress, velocity and viscosity
• D. pressure, velocity and viscosity

Answer 1

Answer:

A. shear stress and the rate of angular distortion

20. Newton's law of viscosity relates shear stress and the rate of shear strain. It is given by the equation r = μ (du/dy)
