non newtonian fluids Flashcards
1
Q
what are newtonian fluids
A
they have a constant viscosity dependingb on the stress applied over time
2
Q
what are non-newtonian fluids
A
these fuids have no single constant viscosity and the viscosity depends on the force applied to the object
3
Q
what is an example ofma non newtonian fluid
A
mixing cornstarch and water forms a non newtonian fluid.
ketchup is also non newtonmian as if you apply frce to it, the viscosity will decrease
