The unit of dynamic viscosity is

A

Poiuselle

B

watt

C

stokes

D

dyne/`cm^2`

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
D
The unit of dynamic visocity is stokes.
It is the ratio of `eta/rho`.
`eta/rho=("Coefficient of viscosity")/("Density of the drop or body")`
[Poiuselle is the SI unit of viscosity, Watt is a unit of power, dyne/`cm^2` is a unit of pressure.]
