Viscosity is the property of a liquid due to which it :

  • A
    occupies minimum surface area
  • B
    opposes relative motion between its adjacent layers
  • C
    becomes spherical in shape
  • D
    tends to regain its deformed position

$A$ metal block of area $0.10 \; m^2$ is connected to a $0.010 \; kg$ mass via a string that passes over an ideal pulley (considered massless and frictionless),as shown in the figure. $A$ liquid with a film thickness of $0.30 \; mm$ is placed between the block and the table. When released,the block moves to the right with a constant speed of $0.085 \; m s^{-1}$. Find the coefficient of viscosity of the liquid.

The velocity of water in a river is $18\, km/h$ near the surface. If the river is $5\, m$ deep,find the shearing stress between the horizontal layers of water. The coefficient of viscosity of water is $\eta = 10^{-2}\, \text{poise}$.
