Viscosity of Water in Comparison to Mercury is

Answer: C -Lower

The dynamic viscosity of water in comparison to mercury is lower.

Solution:

Dynamic Viscosity: A fluid's resistance to deformation caused by shear or tensile stress is measured by this property. It is represented by µ.

Mercury has a higher dynamic viscosity than water.

Water's dynamic viscosity at 20°C is 1.005 centipoise.

Mercury's dynamic viscosity at 20°C is 1.6 centipoise.

Hence dynamic viscosity of water in comparison to mercury is lower.
