Flow of a liquid in which there is a regular gradation of velocity in passing from one layer to the next is called ……. Flow.

A

lateral

B

turbulent

C

laminar

D

steady

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
C
It we select any layer above in the liquid flowing with laminar flow , the layer above it accelerates its flow while the layer below it retards its flow.

When a liquid flows in a tube, there is relative motion between adjacent layers of the liquid. This force is called the viscous force which tends to oppose the relative motion between the layers of the liquid. Newton was the first person to study the factors that govern the viscous force in a liquid. According to Newton’s law of viscous flow, the magnitude of the viscous force on a certain layer of a liquid is given by F = - eta A (dv)/(dx) where A is the area of the layer (dv)/(dx) is the velocity gradient at the layer and eta is the coefficient of viscosity of the liquid. The dimensional formula for the coefficient of viscosity is :
